Growing Season Notes | 2014 was an exceptional growing season for Petite Sirah in the Snake River Valley. Warm growing conditions and a long growing season cultivated a crop high in quality. The south facing slopes, warm days and cool nights creates the dark fruit flavors and balance of tannins that this varietal is known for. |
