2014 Turley Petite Syrah Turley Estate
2014 ターリー プティ・シラー エステート
Winemaker's Notes
Planted adjacent to the Estate Zinfandel, this Petite Syrah is also certified
organic. The area used to be Wappo Indian grounds and obsidian arrowheads
are commonplace in the rocky volcanic soils. The wines are classic Napa Valley
Petite Syrah: dark and brooding on the nose, bright and vibrant on the palate.
Throw it in a decanter to best bring out all the wine has to offer.
Blue and purple fruits on the dense nose, along with Indian ink as well. A great deal of concentration on the palate and finish, wit
h lifted notes of citrus oil. Definitely give it a little time and decant when you’re ready to enjoy this puppy!

The 2014 Petite Syrah Turley Estate has beautiful blueberry and white-flower-scented aromatics, a medium to full-bodied mouthfeel, surprisingly suave, silky tannin, full-bodied richness and a terrific, layered mouthfeel. This seems much more approachable, and an earlier drinker than the Pesenti. Give this 4-5 years of cellaring and consume it over the next three decades. All told there are seven Zinfandels from Napa Valley, ranging from Atlas Peak in the south, to Howell Mountain in mid-valley, to the estate vineyard just north of St. Helena. As one might expect, all of these are remarkable Zinfandels. Something new from Turley are their three cuvées of Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Dragon Vineyard from Howell Mountain, the 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Turley Estate Vineyard and the 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Montecillo Vineyard from Sonoma. Great winemaking for Zinfandel certainly seems to translate well when it comes to dealing with Cabernet Sauvignon, at least in the case of Larry Turley and his staff. Turley continues to excel with probably the most underrated grape in California, Petite Sirah. It is the ultimate antioxidant red wine grape, taking forever to shed tannin and be approachable, but lasting easily, in the best cases, for 20-30 or more years. I tasted five cuvées of Petite Sirah from Turley (and remember, they spell “Sirah” as “Syrah”). What is remarkable is that these wines are all significantly lower in alcohol than the Zinfandels or even the Cabernet Sauvignons. The first three Petite Sirahs from the Turley estate are from the Library Vineyard and Pesenti Vineyard, all tipping the scales at 14.4% alcohol, with the Rattlesnake ridge at 15% and the Hayne Vineyard about the same.
