Tofanelli Petite Sirah 2016, Napa Valley

Home > Red - All wines > Red - Syrah and Petite Sirah > Tofanelli Petite Sirah 2016, Napa Valley

Vince Tofanelli’s winemaking philosophy is all about California extraction with European elegance. Traditional winemaking techniques are used to allow the wine to age gracefully. This old-vine Petite Sirah has five percent Grenache added to bolster the spice and aromatics. This wine is built to age for a decade plus. This is one of the few categories in Napa with an affordable price point that can age with the best $150++ Napa Cabs. The 2016 Petite Sirah displays a dark as night hue, offering scents of black and blue fruits, spice box seasoning, and tilled soil nuances. It’s full-bodied, and full-throttle on the palate. With all the dark concentration, there is still a lovely silkiness around the edges. The bold tannin structure is starting to soften up with the extra few years of bottle age. This is at the perfect sweet spot to enjoy now with the ability to cellar for another five to seven years easily. Raise a glass to old-vine liquid history and to the Italian heritage that has shaped Napa Valley.

  • Owen Roe Ex Umbris 2020

    $29.00

    The Owen Roe Ex Umbris was introduced as a one-time bottling in 2002 after a wild fire struck the vineyard’s surrounding hillsides. The residual ash and smoke resonated in the Syrah grapes, creating a very memorable wine. Year after year, they are asked to develop a Syrah to keep the story of this wine alive! Now, more than 10 vintages later, we hope you will enjoy this bold Syrah comprised from several exceptional vineyards in the Columbia and Yakima Valleys. The Ex Umbris 2019 is a great expression of the bold fruit flavors from that year. Bursting with aromas of red plum, blueberry and pink peppercorn. The palate is filled with refreshing flavors of fresh summer blackberries, currant, and dark chocolate with noticeably structured acidity and silky tannins.

  • Truchard Estate Syrah 2019, Carneros

    $36.00

    The 2019 Syrah is dark purple with a ruby edge with notes of fresh blackberries, baked cherry, espresso, toasted spice and black pepper jump from the glass. For how full-bodied this wine is on the palate, it’s amazingly light on it’s feet for it’s opulence. There’s great tension between the fine velvety tannic structure and fruit and richness in this low alcohol, cool-weather Syrah.
