2022 Turley Wine Cellars Zinfandel Del Barba Vineyard

Country: U.S.A. Region: Central Coast Vintage: 2022 Cépage: Zinfandel (100%) Size: 750 ml Rating(s): 93 (RP) "Sourced from head-trained vines planted in 1980 on sandy soils, the 2022 Zinfandel Del Barba Vineyard is a light, elegant and approachable expression of Turley's substantial Zinfandel collection. Medium ruby in color, it is initially coiled and opens slowly into a bright, inviting nose with aromas of Earl Grey tea, licorice and red cherries, albeit with slightly less definition and clarity than found in other bottlings. The palate is medium-bodied, deeply red-fruited and lined with spicy, floral accents. The finish is long and perfumed, framed by clay-textured tannins and lifted, juicy acidity harnessed with an understated elegance." Matthew Luczy (RP) - 06/24
