About Turley Wine Cellars
When it comes to California Zinfandels, Larry Turley is the master. His are huge, exotic reds that often have head-spinning alcohol and a bit of residual sugar, but at their core, are really showcases for the rich, ripe, old-vine fruit...

Producer: Turley Wine Cellars
Style: Red Wine
Grape Type: Zinfandel
Origin: California
Region: Napa
92(+?) Points | International Wine Cellar , May/June 2013
(15.7% alcohol; Turley has farmed this vineyard since 1997; the crop yield was less than a ton an acre in 2011 owing to wet weather during the flowering): Good full red. Pure, high-pitched aromas of crushed cherry, pepper and orange zest. At once sweet and powerful on the palate, with intense red fruit flavors offering terrific cut. Finishes very long, with substantial dusty tannins and a felicitous combination of breadth and cut.
