Note di degustazione
Bright dark red. Exotic, candied aromas of strawberry and pepper. Sweet, dense and peppery, with red berry and spice cake flavors. Very expressive and varietally accurate zinfandel, finishing with sweet tannins and very good length. (ST)

Few other producers can equal what Larry Turley accomplishes with Contra Costa Zinfandel from the Duarte Vineyard. From ungrafted, ancient vines planted in pure sand (Turley says it looks like a beach), there are 400 cases of the powerhouse 2002 Zinfandel Duarte Vineyard (400 cases; 16.7% alcohol). Full-bodied and dense, with no hotness, but copious quantities of raspberries, blackberries, balsam wood, pepper, and Provencal herbs, this is a rich, layered, hedonistic turn-on. It can be enjoyed over the next 5-6 years. NOTE: This is an estimated price per bottle. Tel. (707) 963-0940; Fax (707) 963-8683
