This Block is dedicated to Antoinette Nichelini, eleventh child of pioneer winemaker Anton Nichelini. Grown entirely in Pleasanton loam, our Block 11 Petite Sirah benefits from the higher hillside elevation of our vineyards. Constantly subjected to afternoon breezes and cool night temperatures these grapes have mature slowly exhibiting rich dark colors, balance tannins wines of distinct raspberry chocolate favors.
