A masterpiece for any wine lover, Petite Syrah is not just a more “petite/small” version of or Shiraz/Syrah, it’s a distinct grape variety. Petite Syrah is the offspring of Syrah and Peloursin. If you’ve never heard of Peloursin, that’s understandable: it’s nearly extinct, found just a few places in the French-Alps. Petite Syreah is loved for its extraordinary deep color and full-bodied flavors of blueberry, chocolate, plums and black pepper. Despite its popularity, Petite Sirah is an exceptionally rare grape with less than 10,000 planted acres worldwide, mainly in California.

Tasting Notes

This almost pitch black Petite Syrah Reserve opens with aromas of crushed violet and red rose, then black and blue berries, and then sandalwood and black pepper! Lively and velvety on the palate, its powerful tannins and notes of dried fig followed by spicy hints of liquorice and black pepper produce its length and a savory finish.

Food Pairing

Barbecue beef, roasted pork, sautéed mushrooms, cheeses- Camembert, aged Gouda are the perfect match to this heavenly wine.

Whether you're an owner/manager of a restaurant, bar, or cellar door at a vineyard, it's vital that you keep your opened bottles of wine fresh for your customers. You have options, but none as easy, affordable, and scalable as winesave.

The reason why your opened bottle of wine starts to go bad, or taste like vinegar, is due to oxidation, i.e. oxygen coming in contact with the wine and reacting with it. To keep your left over wine from spoiling, you need to keep oxygen away from your wine.

​The wine industry has used gases like argon for years to help keep wines during bottling. Argon is a naturally occurring gas that makes up ~1% of our atmosphere. We breathe in argon with every breath. So it's 100% natural and completely harmless.

Argon is quite unique in that it's colourless, odourless, flavourless, reacts with absolutely nothing and is heavier than air. Because of these qualities, argon is the ideal protector for wine. When it's released into the bottle, it settles on top of the surface of the wine, displaces the air containing oxygen, and forms a protective layer over the wine.

The Winesave Pro is easy to use in just 3 steps:

Step 1: Insert tube into bottle.

Step 2: Press for one second.

Step 3: Replace the cap, cork, or stopper.
