About the wine
Bold, ripe Petite Sirah from a Paso Robles icon
- This powerhouse Petite Sirah is packed with rich, jammy dark fruit flavors of ripe blackberry or blueberry, with a pinch of peppery spice bringing a soft kick to the long, lingering finish.
- Your funding helped Sharon harvest Petite Sirah from her choice of vineyards throughout Paso Robles, where hot days and cool nights help this bold red grape develop a sultry, full-on set of robust flavors.
- To give this powerful Petite Sirah an extra dose of elegance, Sharon used Angel funding to age the wine in French oak barrels for 9 months. Now it’s finally here and ready for you to savor!
Best before
Enjoy this Petite Sirah now or over the next 7 years. Serving it at a slightly cooler temperature (around 65ºF) will deliver more floral aromas, along with Petite Sirah's characteristic bold fruit.
Serving advice
Please do not open this wine on the day that you receive it. This is a young wine and I do recommend decanting this wine for 60 mins prior to drinking to allow the flavors and aromatics to fully develop. This also helps soften the tannins and will give the wine a smoother taste. I also recommend letting all of my wines rest for a minimum of 2 weeks after receiving them to allow them to recover from the shipping. The shipping really does impact the aromatics and flavors of the wine and does make a difference on how much you will enjoy your wines.
Food match
Smoked, barbecue or roasted meats, sharp cheeses and dishes with rich flavorful sauces are all my favorite pairings with this Petite Sirah.

Meet the winemaker - Sharon Weeks
- It started as a few odd jobs in the cellar, and turned into a winemaking gig. Over 30 years later, Sharon can't imagine ever wanting to do anything else.
- Sharon's responsible for making some seriously great wines for others – thousands over her 30-year career. But she's always disappointed after the wine's shipped off... all that hard work, and she never hears what becomes of it!
- Now that you've made her an independent winemaker, she loves sharing her big, enthusiastic winemaking style with Angels – and hearing what you think!
