Turley
California Rose Zinfandel
California, USA
Nose has ripe cherries, pomegranate juice, light vanilla and cedar shavings.
Palate has spiced cherry, raspberry, dried orange zest and watermelon; bold acidity out of the gate, but air has relaxed.
A delicious bottle, a true joy to find this as a Turley fan never having known they made a rosé...

Not a fruit heavy Rosé’
K&L notes,
Something we've never had before at K&L, but I managed to squeeze a few cases out of them, is Turley's Zin rose! A crisp dry wine with mouth watering acidity, very limited supply. (Ryan Woodhouse - K&L Domestic Wine Buyer) Winery Notes: "We select a few of our Zinfandel vines to pick early (at 19 brix) to make this vivid, dry rosé. Pale rose petals and fraise du bois with a touch of petrichor on the nose. The palate is high in acid, low in alcohol (11.6%), well-structured and thoroughly refreshing. Fermented in stainless steel, then aged only in used French barriques. Though akin to Provençal rosés in the way it’s made, this wine is distinctly Californian. White Zinfandel has a good heart but a bad reputation; hopefully we can help change that."
