2005 Turley Estate
Rated: 90 by Wine Spectator
Elegant, with ripe, rustic plum, smoky sage and licorice aromas and rich black cherry, coffee and spice flavors that deftly balance fresh acidity, a fleshy texture and firm tannins.a??a??
2005 Turley Juvenile Vineyard
Rated: 90 by Wine Spectator
Gutsy and a little rustic, this is full of youthful verve. Aromas of wild berry, smoky pepper and licorice, and zesty raspberry, plum and rosemary flavors that build to lively tannins.
2005 Turley Dogtown
Rated: 90-92 points Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar
Moderately saturated medium red. Liqueur-like cherry on the nose. Sweet, lush and high-toned, with sound acids giving cut to the red berry and cherry flavors. Shows a dried fruit character on the back end and finishes with sweet, building tannins that give the finish good grip.
