Day three: still showing bright, fresh, and playful. Ash and brine, with kriek beer/framboise elements. A balance of fruit forward and dry, peppery notes. All in all an easy drinker, perhaps too highly esteemed by wine geeks, because it’s not accessible and affordable enough to be a daily drinker. Interested to taste the Rosato and looking forward to the 2019. — 4 years ago

Decanted 30 minutes before serving with beef roast. Melts in your mouth at first, having surprising suppleness and fruit for 15.2 alcohol. As it warms and is exposed to oxygen it heats up without losing finesse. The best Zinfandel I’ve tried, and this is a blend from 29 vineyards. I need to climb my way up the Turley ladder and I don’t think I’ll come back down. — 4 years ago
