This ruby colored wine has medium legs. Aromas are strawberry, raspberry, oak, and vanilla. There are notes of oregano, stems, forest floor, blackberry, and red currant on the palate with a light body. The wine has a juicy texture and short finish

Wow. If you like old world style, this is the wine for you. I would personally recommend a decanting as there will be a good amount of sediment and the wine can use about 30-40 minutes of generous air before pouring. Though the cork on the bottle I tasted was quite spongy and saturated, the wine was excellent. Bursting with aromas of dried herbs and bright red fruits, this light bodied red delivers on the palate with tart cherry and soft tannin. The finish is medium and refreshing.

Excellent Structure. This inky, medium-full bodied Zin has the indicative dried, raisiny fruit flavor of Turley. With a nose of overripe plum, dried raspberry and spice box, this wine rolls onto the palate with modest oak, dried dark fruit and subtle red notes. The finish is long and accented by a pleasant bit of tartness.
