Concannon Petite Sirah (California, 2005)

Category: Petite SirahEddie @ 9:04 am
concannonpetitesirah.jpg I picked up this wine because I really wanted to try something different. I had the Concannon Pinot before and really liked it so I thought I would give this a try. I was please with the purchase and would have it again.
$9 at Frys
Three Trophies
  • Strong Cherry aromas
  • Powerful oak and cherry with the perfect amount of sweetness
  • A little one dimensional but very good tasting
  • Could be a little boring after a while but it is still a good wine to drink
  • Like watching a Temple basketball game under John Cheney…pretty much all your going to see is defense. Now granted they were very good at playing defense under him but unless you understand that there will not be any spectacular offensive plays then you could be a little disappointed.

Two Trophies
  • A sweet wine with a lot of Tannins.
  • Decanting is recommended.
  • Hints of pipe tobacco and maple syrup in the bouquet.
  • A good after dinner wine.
  • Like the bubbly little girl that is always smiling, sweet and happy… ya get a little bored and sick of her… ya need a little spice and dryness in your life. Now if you are the kind of guy that likes this… then go ahead grab a bottle… put on that happy little perm-a-grin and enjoy your time together.
