title: Newsome-Harlow 2007 El Portal Petite Sirah (Calaveras County)
description: It's hard to make Petite Sirah smooth and elegant, but Newsome-Harlow has done it. The wine shows classically fine tannins, while the flavors run toward milk chocolate, ripe blackberries and lots of crushed black pepper. Delicious and refined, a great wine for peppersteak.
variety: Petite Sirah
designation: El Portal
