Tasting notes
Inky and peppery on the nose, with blackberry, tar and violet notes. The palate is dense and chewy, thick-skinned dark fruit wrapped in firm, grippy tannin. Finish is long, savoury and structured.

About this wine
Ridge Vineyards' Lytton Estate Petite Sirah from Dry Creek Valley represents a benchmark expression of this distinctive California varietal. Petite Sirah thrives in the region's warm days and cooling Pacific influences, developing the grape's signature intensity and structure. Ridge's commitment to quality winemaking emphasizes the wine's natural characteristics, resulting in a full-bodied red with pronounced depth and elegant balance.
This Petite Sirah displays the variety's hallmark power, elevated alcohol and medium acidity create a wine of serious presence without heaviness. The estate's meticulous viticulture and traditional winemaking approach yield complexity worthy of cellaring and contemplation. Ridge Lytton Estate Petite Sirah pairs exceptionally well with robust cuisine: grilled lamb, beef preparations, game birds, mushroom-forward dishes, and charcuterie selections all find harmony with this wine's intensity and dry finish.
