2020 Logan's Petite Sirah

Tasting Notes:

Primarily known for cool climates ideal for lighter varietals, the Central Coast has hidden valleys that receive the proper amount of heat for red varietals. Ripe aromas of bramble berry and inky plum marry toasted oak for a finish that is round and silky, perfect for a sumptuous sip.

Appellation Notes: Central Coast AVA

Spanning along the California Pacific coastline, this AVA travels from south of the San Francisco Bay Area all the way down to Santa Barbara County. Sharing the same maritime climate influenced by the Pacific Ocean there are over six counties and multiple AVAs within the Central Coast AVA boundaries. Estabilished back in 1985 this area is has over 100,000 acres and while over half of it is being cultivated with Chardonnay, we find incredible gems of Pinot Noir, Petite Sirah, Grenache as well as little known varietals hosted. While typically Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grow well with the ocean influence, the further inland you go in this AVA, the hotter the daytime temperatures get and it really allows for a diversity of grapes to grow well.
