Turley
Hayne Vineyard Petite Syrah
Napa Valley, California, USA
This wine needs about 90 minutes of air before consuming. Once it is ready, the harsh tannins and acidity disappear. This is a fruity, jammy wine for those who like that style of wine. It is a good exemplar of fruity, jammy wine which will go well with fruit-based sauces. The wine is well-made, but this is not my favorite style of wine. Moreover, at nearly $50 it’s far too expensive for a fruity wine.

There’s a song that includes the line ‘Forget about experience, I’d rather have potential.’ The 2017 Hayne PS brings both — old vine depth with lots of room for aging. Coming out of the bottle an almost milky purple color and with a nose that full of dark fruits and a bit musty, the 2017 is taught, full of massive tannins, and has streaks of vanilla, dark berries and maybe even a bit of lemon. Enjoy it and tuck a few away for 5-30 years to get the full potential.

2017 young but drinking well already. Balanced, not as overly jammy as many Turley wines. Great now!

Monday night bbq with friend from out of town. Went with awaze pork tenderloin and fixings. Sorry not sorry, coulda waited many years but tonight was the night. Silky, fruity, nice acid, a little raspberry, still plenty of tannin.
