Old Vine Zinfandel 2017

Primarily a Sonoma Zin. A touch of Petite Syrah and Carignan are added. Big black cherry and boysenberry fruit with hints of licorice and black tea. Lots of exotic spice flavors on the finish. Medium bodied. Fresh and juicy, but balanced and especially smooth. Great compliment to barbecue. — 4 years ago

Turley

Hayne Vineyard Zinfandel 1996

Some slight shock and awe after tasting this 27 year old Zin, one of the first made by Ehren Jordan at Turley. Translucent, ochre colored with a big nose of creamy dark berries and vanilla. Surprisingly light on its feet while being super-rich on the palate (and carrying 17% abv). Almost a port-like finish. Few signs of age other than the slight tint and concentration. Outstanding! — 6 months ago

Lodi Zin. Dark purple color. Big aromas and flavors of blackberry , black currants and black plums. Bold and fruit forward. Plush texture and light on the tannins. Concentrated. Finish is long. Thank You Ron B! — 2 years ago

This is a blend, but hit all the high notes I love about Zin. Bright big red berry jam and black pepper! — 9 months ago

Turley

Rattlesnake Ridge Howell Mountain Zinfandel 2013

This truly is an awe inspiring wine. Big and bold as is typical of Turley but the 13 rattlesnake ridge Zin is in a league of its own. Lots of slathered blueberry but also has a flavor profile that can be best described as an old school Grenache based chateauneuf du pape. Just a beautiful wine. — 3 years ago
