Elegant Zinfandel, in a good drinking window. Bright red fruits, hints of sweet cherry, raspberry, with a silky mouthfeel with good acid balance and long finish. Became more interesting with air, picking up dark fruits, with hints of black tea, spice and orange rind.

It has been quite a few years since I have had a Turley Zinfandel, and I was surprised a little by this wine. While still very fruity, there was a silky and lighter density to it than I expected. The 15.8 alc was hidden pretty well, too. Not a style that I would like to drink very often, but a well made wine. Ann was not a fan.

Comes across a bit sweet and candied, and a little out of balance. Could use more acid. Also seems a bit one note on the palate, though there is some nice spice box and flowers on the nose.

A fan of this particular Turley. Can drink on its own or with (spicy) food. Fruit forward medium red full bodied big finish wine.

Pure Turley deliciousness. Lush dark red and purple fruit. Complex. Benefits from a little air. Long finish.
