Note di degustazione
Turley's 2014 Zinfandel Dogtown Vineyard is dark, sensual and inviting, with just enough aromatic top notes to balance the dark stone fruit, spice and leather notes. I would prefer to drink the 2014 sooner rather than later, while the fruit retains its juiciness. This is an especially dark, succulent style, but it works nicely. .

A Zinfandel that I have always loved from Turley is their Zinfandel from the Dogtown Vineyard. The 2014 Zinfandel Dogtown Vineyard, from the up-and-coming Lodi AVA, tips the scales at 15.4 % alcohol. It is a sexy, lush, full-bodied Zinfandel, oozing with fruit and character. The wine has underlying loamy soil notes and spice box, as well as copious quantities of raspberry, black cherry and briary, mountain red fruits. It is spicy and full-bodied, with an opulent, plush and layered texture. This is irresistible. Drink it over the next 4-5 years. This vineyard was planted in volcanic and clay soils in 1944.
A wine of multiple dimensions, the 2014 Zinfandel Dogtown Vineyard is wonderfully complex and nuanced, with considerable detail. The most complete and subtle of Turley's Lodi Zinfandels, the Dogtown has it all, but I would prefer to drink the 2014 on the young side, while the fruit retains its pliancy. Sweet floral and spiced notes add the last shades of nuance on the hugely inviting finish. In 2014 yields were just a half ton per acre.
