2017 Cellar No. 254 Petite Sirah
Napa Valley
We selected these grapes from our historic Thomann Station Vineyard, nestled just behind our winery in St. Helena. This location is ideal for growing Petite Sirah, thriving in the deep, gravelly loam soils of the Napa Valley floor. The 2017 vintage began with ample winter rains, fueling vine growth early in the season. Steady warmth in the summer and fall followed, leading to a slightly early harvest with ripe, fruit-driven intensity.
James Suckling, January 2020
A dense, layered red with lots of sweet, ripe fruit and chocolate. Creamy texture. Full-bodied and rich. Flavorful finish. Big wine. Drink now.
