To cut one’s way through a thicket, the machete is the tool of choice—and you better hope its sharp. At Orin Swift, focus and determination is our sharpening stone and it allows us to continue crafting consistent wines year after year. Machete showcases one of our favorite varietals , Petite Sirah, in its unapologetic form—the one that stains your teeth, the glass and everything in its path. But in that form, the complexity is unrivalled with its viciousness on full display. Sourced from premier vineyards across California, some include Summerwind in the Yorkville Highlands, Dark Horse in Mendocino and the Stagecoach Vineyard on Atlas Peak in the Napa Valley.
