Better than expected. Rich, earthy and tannic with a vibrant fresh pear top note above the spicy brambly fruit. Plenty of power and complexity. This has endured well over the past 10 years. I imagine this would have been better 5 years ago (it was lost in my cellar) but it was in no way tired. Big, burly, jammy and tannic.

Pulled from storage this afternoon. Popped and poured tonight. Wonderful "brambleberry flavor. I haven't had a Turley Zin in a while. This one hits the mark! Turley Zin's are unique unto themselves. The 14.6% alcahol didn't hinder it a bit. Wonderful bouquet, flavor, mouthfeel.
