WINE DESCRIPTION
Turley Estate Zinfandel is a premium red wine produced by Turley Wine Cellars, from their estate vineyard in the Napa Valley. The vineyard is known for its warm climate and reliance upon natural rainfall, resulting in low yields of concentrated fruit. The winemaking process involves the light use of new French and American oak to highlight the fruit while adding complexity. The resulting wine is a full-bodied Zinfandel with rich flavors of black raspberry, and spice. It has a smooth and velvety texture with a long, satisfying finish. Overall, Turley Estate Zinfandel is a must-try for Zinfandel enthusiasts who want to experience its most remarkable expressions.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
The Turley Estate Zinfandel shows remarkable power with a full, opulent palate, enriched by alcohol, and mouth-filling velvety tannins.Yet despite such power, the wine remains in perfect balance with equally opulent notes of ripe bramble fruit supported by coconut and cedar notes from oak that expand on the palate over the long finish. Serve with rich grilled meats now or over the next 12 years.
