Similar notes as previous tastings. Deep purple/red color. Lots of black fruits in the nose and flavor. Blackberries, black currants, and black cherries in the nose with licorice and tobacco and hints of chocolate and leather. Black cherries, blackberries, black currants, blueberries and plums in the flavor. Well balanced, medium to full bodied, nice acidity, complex, medium to long silky finish. An elegant wine drinking very well right now and for several years to come.

Similar notes as previous tastings. Ruby color. Red and black fruits in the nose and flavor, blackberries, currants, black cherries, mocha and licorice with floral notes. Elegant wine, well balanced, nice complexity and a medium to long smooth finish.

Deep purple color. Very, very young wine but did settle down a bit through our meal. Lots of deep red fruit in the nose and flavor, raspberries, cherries and spice. It was interesting to try a young Turley Zin, normally 8-10 years is best, but found this in a deli restaurant and it went well with the corned beef sandwich and knish. Very fruity at this age, full bodied and a long finish. I'd wait until 2030 to open out of the cellar but still quite tasty. Will definitely warrant a higher score in the future.

It looks like you are uploading a bunch TNs.
You've had a lot of experience and I see a lot of fine wines, many we have in common. Thanks for the notes, love it!
The all caps are a little startling but everyone, of course, has their own way. Just my $0.02.
Cheers!
