What to Expect

Zinfandel is considered America's own great indigenous grape, even though its origins lie on the Adriatic coast. Planted throughout California and the Pacific Northwest, Zinfandel is at its best in warm regions with cooler temperatures during harvest. The wines can range from off-dry Rosés, White Zinfandels, and light bistro styled wines, to big, rich powerful wines - even luscious wines for dessert bottling. The flavors range from plummy to raspberry, although deep blackberry fruit and brambly spice tones are most common.

Winemakers Notes

The 2005 Zinfandel Juveniles sexy nose of sweet kirsch, pepper, and spice is accompanied by an excellent attack, but the wine is medium-bodied, tart, light, and elegant. For those whiners who feel Turley Zinfandels are too big, powerful, and concentrated, this lighter-styled vintage may have more appeal.<br/><br/>

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. Drink now through 2010. -JL Wine Spectator. A Zinfandel wine from California in USA. 2005 Turley Cellars Zinfandel Juvenile 750ml

Turley Wine Cellars is known for making blockbuster Zinfandel. This estate was established by Helen Turley's brother, Larry. The Juvenile is a blend of several vineyards that have been partially replanted with younger vines. Notes of pepper, spice, and blackberries abound.
