This reserve blend of Petite Sirah with Syrah brings to life many of the flavors of its hillside vineyard: berries, rhubarbs, and a gentle earthiness. This medium-bodied, round red has notes of light eucalyptus and rich red earth in the summer. We think it’ll age beautifully for 10+ years in your cellar.

And we know you’re wondering—why “The Paddle”? This blend is named in honor of its home in the highest drainages of Peña Creek in Dry Creek Valley. What’s the one thing you always want when you’re way up a creek?
