Yoakim Bridge Dry Creek Valley Petite Sirah.

This dark-hued Petite is grown on the western bench of Dry Creek Valley, due west of the estate at approximately 500 feet elevation. Inky dark with a fruity nose it expresses a slight mineral on the palate giving way to bold, dark fruit, like blueberries, blackberries and plums.

Rains early in the 2018 year gave the vines a healthy start. Then a cool autumn allowed more prolonged ripening and delivered a vintage with slightly larger yields than 2017. The result across varieties was fine-quality wines with good ageing potential.
