"The 2016 Sumo is another positively stunning wine from Helen Keplinger. Petite Sirah takes center stage in an inky, beautifully textured red that hits all the right notes. Here too, I am blown away by the purity and nuance Keplinger coaxes from her sites. The Sumo is heady and explosive, with tons of energy, with impeccable balance and a level of sheer allure that makes it absolutely irresistible, even in the early going."
"This is a fantastic red with blackberries, blueberries and white pepper. Full-bodied, layered and solid. Yet, it’s agile and focused for a petite syrah with a hint of viogner."
Alcohol: 14.7%
