| 2001 Turley Zinfandel Old Vines California WB Rating: 90 Alcohol by volume: 15.5% Price at time of purchase: $25.00 (Mailing list only) Type: Zinfandel Principal varietal(s): Zinfandel This wine is still youthful and developing, but we couldn't help ourselves. Excellent fruit/oak nose that opened up nicely with airing. Ripe fruit -- plums/prunes, cherry, cassis, licorice. Silky texture, satisfying, full mid-range -- both Turley trademarks. Seems to have slightly higher acidity than the 2000, and a hint of hotness that may mellow with another year in the bottle. - WB team 2004-04-16 [Back] |
