Great purity in the fruit with complex mineral backdrop. More tannins than the juvenile but balanced.

2013, tense and alive on first opening. Aromatic, orange rind notes, floral, boysenberry, medium + acid, long tannins. Day two, becomes more fruit forward but to be expected. Probably one of my favorite Turley vineyard releases.

Very old vines, but very fresh profile of red and black fruit.
