NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This Petite Sirah from Galante Vineyards' Olive Hill estate is an intense, full-bodied wine with a deep ruby-purple hue.On the nose, aromas of ripe blackberry and boysenberry mingle with hints of black pepper, licorice, and toasted oak. On the palate, velvety tannins provide a lush mouthfeel, while flavors of blackberry preserve, clove, and spice box linger on the finish. The robust character and complexity of this wine make it a great pairing for lamb, beef, and game dishes.

ORIGINS
Winery: Galante Vineyards
Region: Central Coast California
The Central Coast of California is a wine lover's paradise, boasting a wide variety of climates, soils, and grape varieties. Located between San Francisco and Los Angeles, the Central Coast spans from Monterey County in the north to Santa Barbara County in the south. With its diverse topography and Mediterranean climate, the Central Coast is home to some of the most renowned wineries in the United States.
The Central Coast has a long and storied history of winemaking, dating back to the mid-1800s. The first vineyards were planted in the Santa Clara Valley, and by the late 1800s, the region was producing some of the finest wines in the country. The region's reputation for quality wines was further solidified in the early 1989, when the Santa Clara Valley was declared among the first American Viticultural Area (AVA) in the United States.CUSTOMER RATING
