Pets event... (not the four legged kind)

Gentlemen,I know the majority of you are Pinot freaks... (not that I do not share an appreciation - it is actually growing). However, can we consider a Petite Sirah event? I would like to explore this wine in the presence of people who know something more than myself.I think it would be neat.

I've had a few that I like and a few that I haven't.

Thoughts? Admonishments?

Matt, I would certainly but up for that. I think we need the right food match as Pets are so often austere when young. I don’t have any Pets with age. I was also intrigued to hear that Sean Thackrey’s star wine, Orion, is actually Petit Sirah and not Syrah which many believe. This information came from Casey Hartlip, owner of Eagle Point Ranch vineyard. See here.

Anyway, will put it on the books.

Shit...I don't know what was going on with my first comment. I didn't even have any wine that night.
