Bright red in color. 15.2% ABV. Beautiful nose of red fruits, white pepper and licorice. Medium body with medium acidity and remarkable balance. Delicious and surprisingly elegant. Raspberry liqueur, cherries, baking spice and pepper on the palate. The finish is long and spicy. This vineyard is maintained by the team at Turley and the vineyard management shines through here. Just an exceptional Zinfandel. Drink over the next 1-2 years.

Great classic Turley Zin - very balanced. Still drinking well - not flat at all. Sorry it's our last bottle.

PnP at a dinner party. Solid. Smooth. No need to hurry; plenty left.

Had some flashes of its original fruit but seems to be basically past its prime
