Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Rich and plush on the nose, with hints of chocolate, plum and spice. It fans out on the palate to reveal a complex web of spicy black cherry, cola, coffee, blackberry, anise and chocolate flavors, all couched in supple, smooth tannins and finishing long on the palate.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Zippy bright in texture but also lush and round on the palate, the wine offers a fine multidimensional drinking experience. Smooth tannins support a core of cherry, spice, anise, raspberry, cedar and spice flavors, all seamlessly integrated. Finishes long and rich.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Opens with a blast of leathery bacon and saddle aromas next to blackberry and cherry, with leaner notes of cranberry and tobacco. The wine is extremely dry, and the tannins are fierce and in your face. The question is, will the wine improve with age, or just fade away?

What an aroma. So Côte-Rôtie, so powerful and rich, yet so refined. Masses of white pepper, cassis, freshly ground French roast, cocoa, gingersnap cookie, char, vanilla, cinnamon—and that’s just the smell! In the mouth, there’s all that and more. Dry, massive, deep and long. A triumph. 2008–2020.

Quintessential Turley goodness. This powerful Zin from one of Turley's best sources is packed with fruit. Interesting spice notes with a touch of vanilla on the finish. Surprisingly balanced for a wine with 15.7% alcohol. Long finish. As good as it is, a little tough to justify at $90 a bottle.

This wine is big and hot at 16 % alcohol. The big jammy fruit went perfectly with my spicy mexican pork chop at Tres Agaves in SF. I am not sure if it is the name biasing me but I definitely taste some cedar in there.

An outstanding wine. The best part is the exceptionally long finish, which is almost unbelievable. Nose of dark cherries and vanilla, with very pleasant sweetness balanced by low-to-moderate tannins and acidity. I don't understand why this wine doesn't sell for twice the price or more. All years between 2000 and 2005 are of very high quality and ready to drink right away.
