Judd's Hill Petite Sirah - 2005

Judd's Hill Petite Sirah

Winery Story

Artisanal. Small. Hands on. Family. Nestled in the Napa Valley. These are the hallmarks of Judd’s Hill Winery, the life work of Art and Bu... (more...)nnie Finkelstein and their son Judd and his wife Holly.Art has been a winemaker for more than 30 years, beginning in his garage in Los Angeles when he worked as an architect during the day. He rethought his life and brought his family to the Napa Valley in the 1970s to found Whitehall Lane Winery in St. Helena. When that grew too large, they built Judd’s Hill, where the family focuses on making less than 3,000 cases a year of hand-crafted, ultra-premium Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir, Merlot, Petite Sarah and Syrah.

Bottlenotes Team NoteMarch 19, 2009
Lodi "jamminess"- but surprisingly light mouthfeel for a Petit Sirah; seems to be signature of the Judd's Hill style. Tasty, less overwhelmingly jammy than expected, but not a show-stopper as compared to their Old Vine Zinfandel which is.
