Petite's Sirah...Thanks for the PS I Love You focus! <BR/><BR/>Petite's Sirah's definitely a cult variety ~ a passion of the very few. Did you know about the advocacy group that I founded with Louis Foppiano, PS I Love You? It's an PS advocacy group with approximately 70 members (a few are growers, only). Within the group, there are many Petites from which to choose... I met with a group of PS winemakers at Trenatdue this past Tuesday, and they were saying that only the most advanced of palates (not for sophistication, but for "gimme more flavor!") "gets" this cultivar.<BR/><BR/>This will be a very interesting post on December 12, and I'll spread the word to the PS group; so they, too, can watch this phenomenon.<BR/><BR/>B-T-W, Jeff Stai of Twisted Oak sent an Email to me, putting this on my radar screen, but I was too busy setting up the next Dark & Delicious event (Feb. 9, 2008 in San Francisco) to pay this close attention.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for your concept. You're invited to Dark & Delicious, Sonadora... Please let me know if you're up for it! --joAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37542126.post-70471569455399508742007-11-29T04:52:00.000-04:002007-11-29T04:52:00.000-04:00and in italy how can I possibly find a petit syrah...and in italy how can I possibly find a petit syrah wine?!?Burde.ithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12717247557318727224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37542126.post-14989361319565621892007-11-28T09:08:00.000-04:002007-11-28T09:08:00.000-04:00Great idea for a theme - I've already got a tastin...Great idea for a theme - I've already got a tasting lined up with my personal fave PS, so I will be contributing on my wine blog <A HREF="http://1WineDude.blogspot.com" REL="nofollow"> 1WineDude.blogspot.com</A>.
