Very few reviews on this. Mostly distributed via e-mail list. No formal notes but this was quite outstanding. Mark Enfield makes the best Chards in the US. Very much like white Burghs. 1200 bottles made so about 3 barrels. Sorry no formal tasting notes. 13.2%. — a year ago
There’s an awful lot to like here for @$30. Beautiful ample nose of ripe pear and tart apple. Round, rich attack in the mouth, more weight than anticipated. Very pleasant to pop and pour... drinks very well already. ABV listed at 12.9, the wine shows nice acid/fruit balance and little noticeable oak.. I assume barrrels were 2 or 3 year old. Grapes from four very good vineyards..Rorick Heritage, Heron Lake, Haynes Old Vine, and Brousseau. Nice partner tonight for Veal Piccata and simple cheesy fettuccini. — 5 years ago
Crisp and sharper than I anticipated. Not too acidic, well balanced, but didn’t feel young and very little oak. Very tasty! — 5 months ago
Stunner! Very northern Rhône — 7 months ago
Didn’t quite reach the hight’s of the Haynes in 2019. No formal notes but trust me these wines taste like white burgs with a touch more fruit at 1/3 of the price. 12.8%. Just 750 bottles made. 2 barrels? — a year ago
I love all things Turley and this is no exception. The Old Vines Zin is made from smaller plots that can’t produce enough for single vineyard bottlings but are by no means inferior. Along with the Juvenile, it is also Turley’s most accessible Zin in terms of price and drink-ability on release. But it can age well as this bottle of ‘13 opened in fall ‘20 showed — tons of dark fruit, graphite, glycerin and a long spicy finish. Love to drink this while I let my Haynes age. — 5 years ago

I love everything Enfield does and this cool climate chard is no exception—crystalline purity and tremendous depth — 4 months ago
