2020 Turley Cobb Zinfandel
California Certified Organic Farmers
Tasting Notes
The 2020 Zinfandel Buck Cobb Vineyard stands out in this range for its aromatic intensity and mid-weight structure. In 2020, winemaker Tegan Passalacqua excluded Alicante and Mourvèdre from the blend, which likely explains the wine’s gracious personality. Sweet red cherry fruit, rose petal, mint, cedar and cinnamon all grace this wonderfully expressive Zinfadel from Turley. There is a bit of underlying grittiness in the tannin, but that is one of the signatures of the year.
