This is a fresh and lively wine composed of dark cherries, blackberries, all spice and menthol. It even has a slightly gamey character but not pronounced. Drink now or hold. — 4 years ago

Lots of fruit and structure left for being past it’s prime. I’m no expert on aged zin, but it seems to have become more in line with an aged cab. — 7 years ago

Heat off the nose, bramble, flowers and dust. Raspberry blueberry pie filling, five spice, chocolate. Very balanced, not pruny or over done — 9 years ago

Beautifully stunning salmon pink color. Bright, ripe strawberry on the nose with light floral hints. Easy, bright acidity leads to wonderful juicy flavors of cranberry, strawberry and sour cherry and notes of stony minerality. The finish is crisp and light with lingering acidity. So glad I found one!!! — 10 years ago

Lemon, papaya, and pineapple. Nice and refreshing. Obviously less minerality than a New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc, but still extremely delicious. — 5 years ago

Wonderful - great to drink now but could still sit for a few years if you want something with stronger flavors. Dark berry flavor, sweet cigar vanilla oak. Low acid, medium tannins, well balanced. — 7 years ago

I love these Turley Zins from Howell Mountain...Lots of Black Pepper and jammy goodness... Must let this one breathe but opens up nicely. — 7 years ago

Turley made this wine from 1994-2010 and to me it was always the benchmark for the varietal during that era. The 13.9% alcohol was probably the lowest in Turley's lineup back in 2002. Their Charbono has always been a sneaky good ager and this is no exception. Probably already on a slow decline now I wouldn't hold on to these much longer. The Tofanelli family now keeps their own fruit. I'll have to try their version one of these days. — 8 years ago

The decade has treated his wine beautifully. Lots of plum and dark fruit with a smoothness that is so inviting. — 9 years ago

Wow, words can not explain how good this is. You just need to try some of these old turley petite's to believe it. This was the first of quite a few older vintages that I have tucked away. Can't wait to enjoy more of these! — 11 years ago
