Nestled in the heart of Napa Valley, Girard Winery began as a passionate dream in 1975, when a father-son duo set out to craft wines that reflected both quality and place—long before Napa became a global Cabernet powerhouse. What started as a small, forward-thinking project grew into a winery known for honoring classic Napa styles while constantly evolving with the region’s rising prestige.
Over the decades, Girard has navigated changes in ownership, technique, and scale, yet its commitment has remained unwavering: to produce wines that showcase balance, precision, and vineyard character. That philosophy continued to flourish under vintner Pat Roney and winemaker Glenn Hugo, whose long-standing partnerships with growers across Napa’s most expressive sites shape the heart of Girard’s portfolio.
From hillside Cabernet Sauvignon and classic Zinfandel to meticulous small-lot blends, Girard has built a reputation for crafting wines with intensity, structure, and a true sense of place—a legacy consistently recognized by critics and embraced by collectors seeking authentic Napa expression.
Within this lineup, Petite Sirah has become one of Girard’s most sought-after bottlings. Fans turn to it for its heady aromatics, inky-dark color, powerful tannins, and seamless oak integration—a style that embodies both the grape’s boldness and Girard’s polished approach.
The fruit is sourced from old-vine plantings in Calistoga and Pope Valley, where diverse soils and warm Napa days cultivate grapes with remarkable depth, purity, and balance. These vineyards give Girard Petite Sirah its signature combination of richness, structure, and vibrant fruit character.
2021 Petite Sirah showcases the variety at its most expressive, with saturated dark fruit, sculpted tannins, and striking freshness. This vintage delivers depth and drive, capturing Girard’s signature balance while elevating Petite Sirah’s natural power into something refined and irresistibly drinkable.
