“Larry Turley and his sidekick, longtime winemaker Ehren Jordan remain the reference point..for world-class, quintessential old vine Zinfandels. As always, a mind-boggling array of Zinfandels and Petite Syrahs (are) produced by the world’s premier Zinfandel specialist, Larry Turley. He deserves remarkable credit for his “holy grail” quest to locate largely forgotten parcels of old Zinfandel vines, and preserve as many of these historic sites as possible.” – Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate
The debut Zinfandel vintage, 1993, quickly established that Turley Wine Cellars was deadly serious about making blockbuster Zinfandels from some of California's oldest, pre-prohibition, head-pruned vineyards. The wines, aged in small oak casks (both American and French) of which 25% are new each year, are made from grapes that express the essence of Zinfandel. These wines, are hugely successful with wine knowledgeable consumers because of their enormous power, richness, weight, and lofty alcohol levels. The wines are extraordinarily rich and clearly the most concentrated and powerful Zinfandels being made.
Larry Turley got his start as one of the owners of Frog's Leap Winery in Rutherford. When the hankering to focus on single vineyard zinfandel in a bone-crushing style took hold of him, he purchased property in Napa Valley just off Highway 29 between Calistoga and St. Helena, acquired contracts for some particularly ''gnarly'' old vineyards, and did just that. |
