Definitely through its peak but held up very well; oak, vanilla bramble fruit and alcohol on the nose. Fruit was there on the taste but was definitely starting to fade into the background

Over the hill. Handled an extraordinarily high alcohol level (15.7) with fair grace. But the fruit wasn't what I would have expected from this prestige cuvee.

(Turley Zinfandel Moore "Earthquake" Vineyard) Bricking dark red violet color; black fruit, tar, dark chocolate nose; mature, chocolate, black fruit, smoky, ripe plum palate; medium-plus finish
(Turley Moore-Earthquake Zinfandel) #4; VaynerPAZZZ; COLOR-not the darkest Zin; NOSE-lot of black currant, licorice, sweetness, lively, very young; TASTE-absolute New World fruit bomb, big alcohol, great mouthfeel, stuctured, but alcohol & acidity very high, heavy tannins, fruit is still there, but I'm guessing some of it has gone away , RP-92; GV-86

Beautiful color, deep burgundy. Nose offers ripe fruit, smoke and oak. Smooth and rich. Long finish. Taste the age.
