Concannon Central Coast Petite Sirah Limited Edition 2004
Region: Livermore Valley, Central Coast, California
Winery: Concannon Vineyard
Variety: Petite Sirah

Full-bodied with an intriguing near-black color. Earthy currant aroma which was reflected in the flavor but offset by some harsh tannins. Not too much depth but relatively tasty. Wouldn't mind letting a bottle age for a while.

I am reviewing this before the next several because I am almost done the bottle and I want to have a sip ready in case I get writer's block. Do any of you pussyfarts ever actually drink an entire bottle immediately BEFORE writing your reviews? Huh? Do you?? Is it ok to rate a beer before finishing one goddamned 12 oz can? No! I'd like to see you walk a mile in MY shit!! Anyway, this "petite shiraz" is quite surprisingly tasty, as it is not as sweet as most of its varietal brethren and it is heavy and full-bodied, which I personally like. I also give it props because the word "petite" reminds me of sexy women's underwear. Solid four stars.

P.S. I didn't get writers block.
