Tasting - "Crane Lake Petite Sirah 2013"

Name: Crane Lake Petite Sirah
Variety: Sirah
Region: California
Country: USA
Year: 2013
Price: $5.95 Sale
Wine Critic Review (Provided by Vintage Cellar)Shows a certain rustic simplicity now, with youthfully jammy flavors of blackberries, cherries and currants, sprinkled with cocoa and pepper and wrapped into dusty tannins.
My Review: The scent reminded me of blackberries, dark chocolate, and oak. I could taste the blackberries and dark chocolate. It had a bitter finish. Overall, the tongue was on the sweeter side yet had underlying oak and dark chocolate notes, which I quite enjoyed. I would drink this wine again. 
With Food: No
