I don't know, I'm not a big fan of this style of PS. It is interesting in that this has a totally new flavor profile - ie...the "over(?)-green tinge" - but I think I'll stick to big whallop type I'm used to.

I think the distinct green tinge is particular to this wine - but I think it may also suggest the wine will last well, and might improve further. But like some Australian Durifs i have had, this varietal can certainly deliver the big bang.

Interesting that you use the ancestral varietal name of the wine. I've not seen the name on a bottle of wine here in the states ever.

Only in Australian wines in my experience - often blended with Shiraz but also as a single. One of my regular suppliers has 4 Durifs on offer, including a single-varietal rose - which I have never tried. Durif is quite popular here - but Petite Sirah probably gets less exposure than in the US and is certainly less widely available. The Durifs aren't subtle - but do pack their punch.

An interesting article on this:http://www.winelabels.org/artsirah.htm. It's nearly the same thing.
