The conclusion of our Turley 2004's, on to the next vintage with gusto!

Past prime but still delicious. Funky nose, cloudy wine. Fairly similar to the Earthquake vineyard.

Retaining acidity like a boss. #zincanage

A bit past prime drinking but still some nic e smooth fruit.

Bright and fresh fruit with good acidity!

Over the hill. Alcohol and maybe Brett predom. Could have been delish at release

So much jam and tannins on the finish!

Still has a lot of bottle life left in it.

Awesome Zin.

Lots of fruit and structure left for being past it’s prime. I’m no expert on aged zin, but it seems to have become more in line with an aged cab.
