Modus Operandi Cellars is a small-production winery founded by Jason Moore, focused on crafting vineyard-designate wines that emphasize site expression and balance. This Petite Sirah comes from the historic Bacigalupi Vineyard in Russian River Valley, where the region’s cool Pacific influence and long growing season lend an uncommon freshness and aromatic lift to a variety more often associated with sheer power. Moore’s restrained winemaking style allows the vineyard’s structure, savory complexity, and underlying elegance to come forward without excessive extraction or heaviness.
