The Judean Hills, where Tzora Vineyards resides, rise sharply from the coastal plain, and exhibit ideal conditions for growing wine grapes. Terraces cling to this rugged area in a multitude of directions as they follow the contours of the steep slopes. Cold winters, sharp temperature drops during the short summer nights and early morning summer mists, as well as variations in soils from rocky limestone outcrops to ones rich in minerals, all contribute to the character, the balance, and the great longevity of the wines. The wines of Tzora reflect the Judean Hills’ unique terroir. In order to achieve this goal, they make wine only from their estate’s fruit, grown in three vineyards, Giv’at Hachalukim, Shoresh and Neve Ilan, each with varying soils and meso-climates.

The Tzora Shoresh is a blend of 47% Syrah, 39% Cabernet Sauvignon and 14% Petit Verdot grown in the rocky soils of the estate's Shoresh vineyard. The vineyard has a wide range of small parcels varying in elevation and soils, allowing for optimal planting of grape varieties. The wine was aged for 16 months in French oak barriques. Deep ruby in color, the wine emits aromas of ripe plum, berries and spice. On the palate, the wine is full bodied and rich with suave tannins and a subtle acidity. The finish is long and complex. Enjoy with meat stews or braised goat.
