Blue mountain fruit. A big wine, with bright and deep fruit, good acidity and a decent tannic presence.

Consistently one of our favorite zins from them. This is a serious zin. Dark berry, leather, minerality, spice.

My constant pursuit of the perfect Zinfandel turned up this beautiful example from Helen Turley. A perfect balance of fruit (tart and dark), alcohol (high), sweet tannin and finish. Definitely belongs in my top ten!
