The Petite Sirah is Old Growth Cellars' flagship wine. Our grapes come from the Clarksburg Appellation in the Sacramento delta
region where the hot days and cool nights create the perfect growing conditions for Petite Sirah grapes. Old Growth Cellars'
hand pressed fermentation process is evident in the ink-grade color and bold up front flavors. Considered a "big wine",
our Petite Sirah offers up delicious berry flavors with hints of cherry, accompanied by a very smooth finish. One taste and
you can see why Old Growth Cellars' Petite Sirah was awarded the gold medal and "best of show" of all the Humboldt
County red wines.

Producing a limited number of cases allows the hand selection of the grapes at the optimum time. The grapes are crushed the
same day they are harvested. To permit maximum color and flavor to be extracted, the grapes are hand pressed during the fermentation
process. The wine is then aged 20 months in Hungarian and French oak barrels. All our wines are handcrafted in small lots,
are unfiltered and unfined
