2012 Turley Zinfandel EstateNapa Valley more |
6/11/2015 - Uglypinga Likes this wine: NRThe new era of Turley has brought more femininity to these zins with some purple flowers on the nose and brighter, redder fruits though the signature turley mouthfeel is there. Very young, I think older turkeys aged effortlessly for eight to ten years and I think these will go longer. Really good. |
