Turley Wine Cellars

Larry Turley founded Turley Wine Cellars project in 1993 with a desire and love for old vine Zinfandel. As a former emergency room physician, he jokes that he resuscitates these old vines in producing beautiful and intense wines. Pairing up with winemaker, Tegan Passalacqua they have an assortment of Napa and Central Coast Vineyards producing mostly Zinfandel, Petite Syrah and a little bit of Cabernet Sauvignons.

Robert M. Parker Jr. has called Larry Turley “the world’s premier Zinfandel specialist…he built Turley Wine Cellars into a showcase for the fruit, power and intensity of Zinfandel.” Production is extremely low, so getting your hands on these phenomenal bottles could be tough, but we have quite the selection!

Tasting Notes

WS92
Plump and racy, but well-focused, with smoky cracked pepper and black cherry aromas leading to lush, layered flavors of raspberry, licorice and orange zest. A pleasure to drink. Drink now through 2025. 12,000 cases made.
RP90
Turley’s 2014 Zinfandel Juvenile Vineyard is an assemblage of bits and pieces from different parcels, but overall from the younger vine portion of the multiple terroirs they exploit. The wine is a big, juicy, classic Zinfandel with a dark ruby/purple color, hefty power (15.5% alcohol), without a trace of heat or burn. It has loads of briary blue and red fruits, medium to full body, vibrant acidity, impressive purity and texture. This is a strong effort and one of the largest cuvées Turley produces. Drink it over the next 4-5 years.
