2019 Archival Petite Sirah
Our 2019 Archival Petite Sirah is a delightful journey through '80s nostalgia with every sip. Imagine indulging in classic treats like Pac-Man-shaped gummies and Pop Rocks, where the flavors dance on your palate. It's like stepping into a time machine, with flavors reminiscent of purple slushies and the irresistible allure of Fun Dip. It’s a sip that transports you to a world of Rubik’s Cubes and cassette tapes. This inky beauty embodies the essence of its grape variety with a graceful, elevated twist, thanks to early harvesting and gentle handling. It blends retro character with the modern finesse of today, coming together in perfect harmony.
Always minimal Sulfites added.

Tasting Notes
The Archival, simply put, tastes like experiences. Remember movie theater candy? Mixing jujubes and whoppers? Or better yet, the taste and smell and sound and feeling of the ice cream truck at the beach, and the firecracker popsicle? I suppose you could say that it tastes like 2019 and group gatherings. Snack food and warm feelings. Snowcones and black licorice. Scotty dogs and wristbands. Overall this inky goddess is a classic example of its variety with the lithe and lifted twist that early picks and less punch downs grant us. Power en pointe!
