Varietal

Petite Sirah

Petite Sirah, often confused with Syrah, is a robust red grape variety celebrated for its bold and full-bodied wines. What makes Petite Sirah unique is its intense color, powerful tannins, and rich, concentrated flavors. Originating from France, it found a new home in California, where it thrives in regions like Napa Valley and Sonoma. Petite Sirah wines are characterized by their inky color, often accompanied by flavors of dark fruits like blackberry and blueberry, complemented by notes of pepper and spice. The grape’s thick skins contribute to the wines’ formidable structure, making them age-worthy and suitable for extended cellar aging. Despite its name, Petite Sirah is anything but “petite” in character. These wines appeal to those who appreciate bold, expressive reds, and they stand out for their ability to pair well with hearty dishes. Exploring Petite Sirah invites wine enthusiasts to experience the robust and powerful side of red wine, making it a compelling choice for those seeking intense and flavorful expressions.

Country

United States

Of all the New World wine countries, perhaps the one which has demonstrated the most flair for producing high quality wines - using a combination of traditional and forward-thinking contemporary methods - has been the United States of America. For the past couple of centuries, the United States has set about transforming much of its suitable land into vast vineyards, capable of supporting a wide variety of world-class grape varietals which thrive on both the Atlantic and the Pacific coastlines. Of course, we immediately think of sun-drenched California in regards to American wines, with its enormous vineyards responsible for the New World's finest examples of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot based wines, but many other states have taken to viticulture in a big way, with impressive results. Oregon, Washington State and New York have all developed sophisticated and technologically advanced wine cultures of their own, and the output of U.S wineries is increasing each year as more and more people are converted to their produce.

Region

California

California as a wine producing region has grown in size and importance considerably over the past couple of centuries, and today is the proud producer of more than ninety percent of the United States' wines. Indeed, if California was a country, it would be the fourth largest producer of wine in the world, with a vast range of vineyards covering almost half a million acres. The secret to California's success as a wine region has a lot to do with the high quality of its soils, and the fact that it has an extensive Pacific coastline which perfectly tempers the blazing sunshine it experiences all year round. The winds coming off the ocean cool the vines, and the natural valleys and mountainsides which make up most of the state's wine regions make for ideal areas in which to cultivate a variety of high quality grapes.

Vinous Media

The 2023 Petite Sirah Tower Road wafts up with a darkly floral blend of crushed violets, rose petal and dried black cherries, with nuances of gravel dust. It splashes across the palate with a massive wave of ripe black fruits and spices as edgy tannins collect toward the close. This leaves a dark chocolate bitterness while tapering off with impressive length and potency.

Winery Notes

Tomato sauce and herbs crate a savory nose, backed by tangy red fruits, dried citrus and coffee. Round, rich, and deeply concentrated in the mouth, roasted coffee bean with vanilla intertwines with juicy black and blue fruits. The toasty finish is delightfully long.
