The Crusher from Clarksburg would be a good name for a professional wrestler and this muscular Californian red is certainly built like one. It's big, intense, a little bit loud and showy yet a real softie at heart.

The Crusher Wines are a testament to an enduring partnership between the winemaking tradition of the Sebastiani family and the Wilsons, a respected grape-growing family with deep roots in Clarksburg, California.

Winery notes (2021 Vintage)
"The Crusher Petite Sirah is a deep, inky colour with bold aromas of boysenberry, blackberry, and fig jam. The inviting aromas lead to a medium palate with a core of juicy fruit flavours, toasted hazelnut and baking spice notes. The wine spends 10 months in a combination of French, American and Hungarian oak, giving the final blend a soft texture with fine, well-integrated tannins."

90/100 Jim Gordon, Wine Enthusiast, November 2022 (2019 Vintage)
"Big but not overpowering, this bold, spicy wine packs plenty of blackberry, blueberry and black pepper on a full body backed by moderate tannins. The rustic, savory side adds good complexity beyond the simply fruity character."

5 Stars & 94/100 Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, August 2022 (2018 Vintage)
"Wonderfully fruited and perfumed, the bouquet shows black/blueberry, vanilla, clove and hazelnut aromas, followed by a succulent palate offering velvety texture and fine tannins. Plush and mouthfilling with delectable flavours. At its best: now to 2028. "

92/100 Cameron Douglas MS, August 2022 (2018 Vintage)
"A wine from the Don Sebastiani and Sons stable – presenting aromas and flavours of fresh doris plum and black cherry, there’s moments of red licorice and baking spices then toasty barrel qualities and a touch of dark chocolate. An abundance of fine tannins melt into the core fruit flavours and a moderate acid line keeps the palate refreshed and engaged. Nice weight and poise with persistent flavours and lengthy finish. Well made and ready to drink from day of purchase through 2026+."
