2023 Petite Sirah, Brown Barn Block – Alexander Valley Estate – Gold, 92 pts.

J. Rickards Winery on May 6, 2026

Growing next to our winery’s brown barn, these vines are a collection of Petite Sirah clones collected by Jim from old Sonoma County vineyards over the last 43 years. Gentle grape processing creates a classic Petite Sirah without over-extraction. The wine has a wonderful nose of wild blueberries, exploding in the mouth with flavories of juicy blueberries and blackberries, yet retaining the classic backbone of black pepper and structure to last.
