Odedi's Wine Reviews Blog: Aridus Wine Company Limited Production Petite Sirah 2020, Arizona
Deep purple in color with a short purple rim.
Fruity nose with cedar, black fruits, Indian spices and chocolate notes.
Full-bodied and elegant, with medium acidity.
Dry and very fruity on the palate with nice complexity.
Showing blackberries, black currants, cooked plums, cedar, cherries, licorice, light vanilla, figs, tobacco, chocolates, dark coffee and black pepper.
Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy cherries.
This is an interesting Petite Sirah from Arizona. Easy drinking and good right out of the bottle.
Smooth and rich with nice balance. Fruit forward and very chocolatey.
Needs a couple of hours to open up properly and show the beautiful nose.
Delicious right now, and will continue to age nicely in the next 5 to 7 years. Would be nice to revisit it in 3 years and see how it evolves.
13.9% alcohol by volume.
92 points.
