Winemaker 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.

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2013 Petite Syrah from the Turley Estate is black purple in color, tight, rich and full-bodied, with floral and blueberry liqueur notes. It is massive, rich and not ready for prime time drinking for at least another decade. Super-intense and pure, it should enter its prime somewhere around the 15- to 20-year mark and last for another 30 years. The alcohol in Petite Syrah is far less than Zinfandel, and this one tips the scales at 14.8%.

Wine Spectator
The blackberry, blueberry and huckleberry flavors are rich, lushand velvety, dripping with accents of dark chocolate, Earl Grey tea, licorice, toasted cedar and vanilla bean. A smoky, spicy sandalwood detail weaves in and out on the long finish. Drink now through 2030.
