TURLEY WINE CELLARS
2017 ZINFANDEL
OLD VINE
Turley Wine Cellars is an American icon that’s been a benchmark producer of Old Vine Zinfandel for nearly three decades. Their first vintage of 1993 Hayne Zinfandel ranked #11 on the Wine Spectator Top 100 list, and they’ve remained a paragon in their field ever since.
They now produce an eye-popping forty-seven separate wines from over fifty Certified Organic Vineyards, and they specialize in ancient vines.
Their Old Vines Zinfandel beautifully displays their undeviating winemaking philosophy that’s an anthem of their brand.
The 2017 Old Vines Zinfandel was carefully stitched together from a vast collection of ancient vineyards spanning across seven iconic regions across California.
Created from vines ranging from 41 to 129 years old, the 2017 showcases old vine depth with no shortage of personality.
The winery has always attracted some of California’s most talented winemakers, beginning with Helen Turley. Helen passed the torch to winemaker Ehren Jordan, and now Ehren to Tegan Passalacqua, who worked under Jordan before becoming Director of Winemaking.
TURLEY WINE CELLARS
2017 ZINFANDEL
OLD VINE
Members’ price: $36 per bottle
From Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate, “… the 2017 Zinfandel Old Vines features exotic spice accents over a core of blueberry and boysenberry compote, crushed black cherries and berries with notes of cinnamon stick and potpourri. Medium to full-bodied, it has loads of spicy black and blue fruits in the mouth with firm, ripe tannins to frame and juicy acidity, finishing long and very spicy.” 92 Points
From Antonio Galloni’s Vinous, “The 2017 Zinfandel Old Vines is rich, ample and fleshy. The heat of the year gave the Old Vines a little extra kick. Dried cherry, licorice and spice add an exotic flair to this super-expressive wine loaded with class and pedigree.” 91 Points

Winery Notes: “The 2017 Gamba Starr Road Old Vine Zinfandel is in a word, opulent…The aroma offers exquisite Luxardo cherries, cocoa, raspberries and subtle cedar…. Dark black fruits, candied nectarine, freshly baked pie crust and an ethereal note of sweet oak fill the palate, surrounded by a backdrop of lifting and zesty acidity to frame the wine. The texture is silky, seamless and balanced, with soft leathery, yet polished tannins. Focused and uncompromising, this artistic, and hedonistic expression of Old Vine Zinfandel will leave you satisfied and reaching for the next sip…”

From Jeb Dunnuck: “A terrific value, the 2016 Zinfandel Sonoma County offers terrific, classic notes of dried berry fruits, sandalwood, exotic spices, and brambly herbs in a medium-bodied, ultra-fine, elegant package.
