2023 Reserve Petite Sirah, Captain Joe's

Inspired by Captain Joe Concannon’s strength and enduring spirit, this bold, small-lot Petite Sirah opens with deep layers of blackberry and ripe plum grounded by rustic earth and dark spice. Structured and complex yet inviting, the palate delivers rich, concentrated fruit supported by firm tannins and a lasting, powerful finish. A commanding wine with depth and character, crafted to honor a legacy that helped shape California wine.

A majority of the grapes in this wine are sourced from Block 1 Heritage Vineyard. This site is a well-drained, alluvial plain with deposits of gravel and rock that contribute to the consistent production of outstanding Petite Sirah grapes year after year. The vineyard is planted in 4' x 8' rows of head-trained vines. The remaining portion of the grapes comes from Block 11.

The growing season was consistent and mild. Signs pointed to an early harvest until a late August/ early September heat wave pushed ripening in some blocks, resulting in a quickened harvest pace. But September rain brought a sigh of relief, refreshing the vines and allowing more hang time for the remaining grapes. Overall, the result was concentrated and flavorful fruit, creating great acid balance.
