  Turley's 2022 Juvenile is a richly aromatic wine, packed with dark bramble fruits, pickling spice, cedar and licorice. Medium-to-full-bodied and with lively acids, it delivers a flavor payload that is commensurate with the aromas, adding a component of apricot on the mid-palate. The oak and tannins are quite well-assimilated, which is also the case for the wine's alcohol (15.2%) when served at the proper temperature of 60-65°F. Medium-to-long on the back end, this is an enjoyable Zinfandel that will provide plenty of pleasure over the next 3-4 years. Tasted from a bottle that had been decanted through a Vinturi aerator, this benefited from the first hour in carafe. Enclosed with a Diam 10 cork. Drink now-2028.

  Very approachable given it's so young, you get intro-Turley at a very fair price. Rich deep fruit, spice, long finish.

  Big. Aroma immediately took me to a winery barrel room - oaky, with big, primary, grapey notes, along with ethanol. The alcohol gets in the way of this wine; it's very much in the forefront of the aroma and flavor profiles. Red grapes and very ripe blackberry notes round out the flavor.
