Appellation:

Shenandoah Valley

Winemaker Notes:

We were inspired to make the Charactère blend while sampling our wines, with the Zinfandel first followed by Petite Sirah and realizing what a great combination the two would make to enhance the Zin even more by taking the fruitiness up a notch in intensity while retaining the bold mouthfeel of a Petite. We created a perfect balance with an infusion of French Oak.

Vineyard Notes:

Planted on deep growing and drought-tolerant special rootstock, our 14-year-old Estate Petite Sirah grows on a steep hillside at a 2,000-foot elevation in Amador County’s Shenandoah Valley of the Sierra Foothills. It thrives in warm daytime breezes from the Central Valley and cool Sierra evenings, a 30-degree swing in temperature. Our Petite Sirah is dry farmed with sustainable growing practices.
