“The 2012 Explorer is built on a core of Petite Sirah from Kick Ranch in Sonoma. Bold and racy throughout, the 2012 offers superb intensity in a racy, voluptuous style that holds tons of near-term appeal. Sweet red-fleshed fruit, cherry, pine, spice and mint meld into the juicy, expressive finish. This is another gorgeous wine from Behrens that should be reasonably priced as well.”
