  • Exceptional – Dan Berger, Dan Berger’s Vintage Experiences, April 3, 2008
  • Wine of the Week - About Wine, November 2007
    "Vina Robles has produced a beautiful Petite Sirah. This is a full-bodied, full-flavored, full-colored red wine that can certainly hold its own. The flavor profile speaks of dark fruit, particularly plum and blackberry spring to the top of the palate while the subtler voices of vanilla and peppery spice sing in the background. This is a ritzy wine find that is more than suitable for Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner selections. Additional preferred pairings include rich sausage, prime rib and grilled entrees."
  • 88 Points - Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar, November 2007
    "Glass-staining ruby. Sexy red and dark berry aromas, with gentle oak spice and floral qualities adding interest. Plum and cherry on the palate, which displays a sweet, tannin-free personality, quite unlike most examples of this often rugged variety. Finishes sweet and persistent."
  • Laurie Daniel / The Grape Vine - The Tribune / San Jose Mercury News, October 2007
    "Despite the name petite sirah is usually a big, bold wine. That's true of this one, but it also manages to retain some elegance. The wine is dark and dense, with ripe-yet-bright blueberry and black raspberry fruit and fine tannins."

  • Laurie Daniel / The Grape Vine - The Tribune / San Jose Mercury News, December 2007
    "Signature is unusual in that’s it’s based on petit verdot, which makes up more than half the blend: cabernet sauvignon and syrah account for the rest. It offers generous rich, bright black cherry and raspberry fruit, accented by some toasty oak. The texture is plump and supple, though the wine has plenty of structure."
