This is the 2020 ... couldn’t find the year yet on here. Despite the crumbly cork, super fun to drink! — 5 years ago
Petit Verdot from one of my favorite Napa wineries. This is a very rustic but nicely refrained wine. Good tannins, good fruit, with acidity as well. — 5 years ago

Wonderful and the normal intensity of this grape. Turnbull in Napa makes a great Lagrein. They probably found a creative way to bring in the vines. — 4 years ago
Predecessor to today's Turnbull Winery..think around $30 bucks back in its time.
Double decant (decent chunky sediment) and pour. A sterling tawny ruby red color with good bricking. On the nose: A surprisingly expressive nose!......sweet aged cab perfume, cherries, Eucalyptus, cedar, green veggies, smoked meats. Taste: elegant, smooth, nice mouthfeel, medium body wine with dried black fruit, dried herbs, pepper, and a currant & leather medium finish with just a little tannic kick after all these years. A gift from a friend, and a TREAT to drink this Saturday night!!!!! — 5 years ago

Crazy tannins—I choked for a split second there—but also rich dark fruits, black currant tea, and some earthy herbaceousness. It was a good balance of sweetness and acidity, and I just wish I had gotten to drink more of it. — 7 years ago
My contribution to the evening - very Bordeaux styled with the main difference being the crazy Pyrazines in the aroma. 60% new French oak and 40% neutral oak barrel aging, with 91% Sauvignon Blanc, ending in Semillon and Muscat, 100% estate fruit, made by Kristen Belair, who spent time making wine at Turnbull, and Trefethen. Most guessed Bordeaux graves. Excellent wine and not what I expected. Kind of funky on the nose too, so though it is a pale, and light colored wine... it could actually use light decanting to let the funk and pyrazine burn off just a tad. — 7 years ago

A Napa Cabernet Franc tasting with the family today. The Detert and the Larkin were the favorites of the group; both had gorgeous black cherry and blueberry fruit with terrific aromatic intensity. The Gandona Meia and the Studio Seven-Fifty need more time. The Turnbull was slightly corked. — 8 years ago
