2012 Turley Zinfandel Juvenile

Community Tasting Note

Saturday, May 17, 2014 - My first Turley, purchased after I read that there had been a style shift away from the super high-octane of yore. At 15.4%, that's still pretty darn high. Relatively balanced, lots of dark, dark blackberry fruit and some smooth tannins, but overall not that interesting. I didn't detect much development in an hour in the glass, but I decanted the rest into a half bottle to observe the next day. Not a good value, and the cumbersome bottle is a parody of what "fancy" wine should look like; I couldn't even get my foil cutter to fit on the capsule. Good+.
