Estate Red - Sonoma Valley - Grape: Durif (Petite Sirah) *harvested before 2020 fires broke out

The wine is black, ultra-rich and full-bodied with a very long smooth lingering finish. Absolutely a two decade wine.

"95+ Points. Only 89 cases of the 2020 Romulus were made from old vine Petite Sirah. Deep garnet in color, it offers a beautiful mélange of stewed plums, baked blackberries, and raisin cake scents, plus hints of rose oil, tar, and tilled soil. Concentrated and full-bodied in the mouth, the palate delivers firm, chewy tannins and compelling freshness to support the taut, muscular black fruit flavors, finishing long and savory." - Lisa Perrotti-Brown 6/24

Winemaker Brian Graham...

Learning from French Masters...Brian worked in, and later managed, several wine stores where he learned about fine wine through the captivating stories of the various purveyors. Brian spent five years in retail before moving into distribution, and it was during his time in distribution that he was approached by a friend named Francois who offered him a place to stay and a job at his Chateau in Bordeaux. His mind set on learning all he could on growing grapes and making extraordinary wine, Brian sold everything he owned and purchased a one-way plane ticket to France. 

While in France Brian attended the University of Bordeaux and paid his way by working at several small Chateaux including Chateau Roquefort. He also worked harvest in Burgundy at an extremely small, craft “micro-winery” that was a real “hands-on” operation – all of the machines were literally powered by hand! Brian reveled in traveling across France and surrounding countries eating, tasting, and soaking up the old world style of winemaking that would later become the pillars of his winemaking philosophy

Having a thirst for knowledge, and while still living in France, Brian went on to attend the Wine and Spirits Educational Trust (WSET) in London.
