Preston Farm & Winery 2023 Petite Sirah, Dry Creek Valley

Chris Costales was impressed by this organically-grown wine after discovering it sitting at a wine bar.  He admired the opaque, magenta-rimmed appearance, the perfect integration of oak and fruit in the aroma, and the velvety mouthfeel until the tannins kicked in in the finish.  Lou Preston began his now biodynamic and organic vineyard over 45 years ago, and vintage after vintage has quietly been producing admirable Zinfandels and powerful Petite Sirahs like this one for decades.
