I must have a flawed bottle. It was well stored. No appearance of oxidation, but a lot of prunes on the nose which carried over and dominated the palate. No fruit, minimal tannin and acid. Very little mi-palate. Had to pour it out. First time for a Turley

My only bottle, so no comparison with the past. Surprisingly still alive and well, especially after reading the previous notes. Dark ruby color, no bricking. Lively nose, a bit earthy, smokey with some violets. Good acid and some lingering tannin, but definitely thin on the mid-palate. Very little remaining fruit but a nice sweetish finish. Paired well with marinara sauce.

Still going strong. Nice nose with earth and bramble. On the palate, spicy, good acid, some red fruit. Still quite intense. Aging well
