Note di degustazione
Turley's 2013 Zinfandel Juvenile is laced with dark red cherry, plum, mint and sweet, exotic spices. Lifted aromatics and veins of supporting salinity give the wine its shape and sense of proportion. Drink this supple, highly expressive Zinfandel over the next few years. Although delicious on its own merits, the Juvenile also happens to be a superb value.

A killer Zinfandel, the 2013 Zinfandel Juvenile is a blend from younger vines replanted on old-vine sites. For the statisticians, this wine is made from Zinfandel vines ranging from six to 25 years of age across 15 different vineyards, including such hallowed Zin terroir as Hayne, Ueberroth, Pesenti, Salvador, and Vineyard 101. This is a stunning example that shouldn’t be discounted just because it is not a single-vineyard wine. Deep ruby/purple, with oodles of black cherry, raspberry and blackcurrant fruit as well as some pepper and spice, the wine is plump, full-bodied, sexy and delicious. Sporting 15.5% natural alcohol, this is a lusty, extroverted Zinfandel that has been brilliantly put together by the Turley winemaking crew. Drink it over the next 4-5 years.
The 2013 Zinfandel Juvenile is lively and focused throughout. Sweet tobacco, licorice, cedar and dried red cherries are all laced together in the glass. This is a lovely introductory level offering. Plums, sweet cherries and spices are all laced into the expressive, pliant finish. I very much like the sense of energy here.
