Karen Birmingham Petite Sirah Clarksburg 2016
About the wine
Velvety, decadent and wild red
- Never tried a Petite Sirah? This is one heck of an introduction.
- Clarksburg is the absolutely perfect place to grow intensely concentrated grapes and in the hands of an expert winemaker like Karen, these beauties explode with raw power.
- Dark and inky with heaps of blueberries, blackberries and dark fruit, this dangerously drinkable wine finishes with a touch of sweet spices from French oak ageing.
