Richard Bruno Clarksburg Petite Sirah 2019
About the wine
Smooooth and luscious Petite Sirah
- This powerhouse Petite Sirah is sheer decadence from the first sip to the last, overflowing with rich, mouth-filling dark fruit flavors and a refined layer of oaky spice.
- Richard harvested grapes from a fourth generation family vineyard in Clarksburg — they know how to grow Petite Sirah to perfection and you gave Richard the all-access pass to their best fruit!
- This rich red helped Richard put Clarksburg on the map – and the last vintage took home GOLD at the International Wine & Spirit Competition with a whopping 95 point score. Grab a bottle (or two!) and help Richard celebrate!
Best before
The wine was made to be enjoyed in the near term, but will continue to age well through 2025.
Serving advice
It should be ready to drink right out of the bottle, but will definitely improve with decanting and/or aeration for 30 minutes.
Food match
Pork chops and/or pork belly would be perfect pairings with this red. It's nice with steak au poivre and frites or any other steak off the grill.
Contains sulphites
Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Richard Bruno
Years Angel-funded: 2013-2023
- Richard Bruno is exactly what we love in a winemaker– the quiet achiever behind the scenes at some of the world's most famous wine brands. He's made wine for Francis Ford Coppola and Don Sebastiani, the latter of which was named Winery of the Year TWICE under his watch.
- During his decades making wine for famous wineries and earning them 90+ scores, he has traveled all up and down California's coastal wine regions. His experience and familiarity with the terrain allow him to sniff out the best-bang-for-buck pretty much anywhere in the state.
- Launching one's wine brand is hard and expensive, so Richard is using Angel funding – and he's able to focus on winemaking, instead of selling wine.
