2011 Turley Wine Cellars Zinfandel Dogtown Vineyard

"The 2011 Zinfandel Dogtown Vineyard presents an intriguing combination of dark fruits, smoke, incense and dried flowers. Today the Dogtown is a bit tight, but it nevertheless possesses gorgeous depth and richness, not to mention tons of complexity. There is plenty to admire here. Anticipated maturity: 2013-2021.
This is a thrilling set of wines from Larry Turley, Ehren Jordan and Tegan Passalacqua. Tasting this wide a range of 2010 and 2011 Zinfandels and Petite Syrahs is like taking a master class in California terroir. The house style favors an expression of Zinfandel and Petite Syrah built on aromatic intensity and elegance, which Jordan credits to gentle extractions. At times, the wines come across as quite Burgundian in the way they express richness but not excess heaviness. Over the last few years, the wines have become a little more laid-back and less overtly ripe, which is a net positive given that the starting point for all of these wines is fruit of exceptional quality. The Petite Syrahs in particular are noteworthy because they are among the few wines that find the elegance Petite Syrah is capable of, while avoiding the massive tannins that are so typical elsewhere. The 2010s are strong across the board, although Turley did not bottle a few of their wines from sites that got scorched by the heat spikes, which includes the Highway 101 and Zampatti. The 2011s are more variable, as befits a vintage that had much less favorable conditions overall."

"(15.7% alcohol; Turley has farmed this vineyard since 1997; the crop yield was less than a ton an acre in 2011 owing to wet weather during the flowering): Good full red. Pure, high-pitched aromas of crushed cherry, pepper and orange zest. At once sweet and powerful on the palate, with intense red fruit flavors offering terrific cut. Finishes very long, with substantial dusty tannins and a felicitous combination of breadth and cut. " (May/June 2013)

"Burly and loaded with fruit, this balances big alcohol with a solid backbone of acidity and tannins. The aromas of dried cherry and smoky black pepper open to dense flavors of huckleberry, soy and dried herb. Drink now through 2020. 680 cases made. –TF" (Issue: Web Only - 2013)
