Turley Zinfandel Hayne Vineyard 2008

This wine reveals a dense purple color along with an extraordinary bouquet of pure black raspberries, creme de cassis, licorice, roasted herbs, and pepper. It is dense with massive body and flavor concentration, yet silky tannin and well-integrated spice, acidity, and alcohol. RP 97

Turley Zinfandel Moore (Earthquake) Vineyard Zinfandel 2008

One of the old classics and made from extremely old vines, it exhibits southern Rhone-like characteristics of roasted peppers, licorice, lavender, kirsch, and other black fruits. With excellent intensity, richness, and full body, it is another example of this sensationally strong, impressive vintage for Turley Wine Cellars. RP 96

Turley Zinfandel Hayne Uberroth Vineyard Zinfandel 2008

This vineyard’s chalky limestone soils have given the wine extraordinary definition, fabulous concentration, and a style that seems like a hypothetical blend of a great grand cru Burgundy with an outstanding wine from St.-Emilion’s limestone hillsides. Black cherry, black currant, and crushed chalky notes along with terrific acidity and sensational concentration and depth are all present in this beauty. RP 96

Turley Petite Syrah Hayne Vineyard 2008

This possesses huge aromas of blackberries, blueberries, and ink, massive fruit concentration, enormous body, and a lot less alcohol than the Zinfandels.  RP 96+
