Beautiful funky pinot. Evolved fruit but still present (qeue de cerise, dried cherries) and fleshed out tannins. Medium weight hinting at an ability for continued consumption over the next 2 years but a slightly alcohol nose gives impression of a slight imbalance. Wine has help up well and give an elegant and enjoyable drinking experience.

Well, I don't know if Mr. P and I disagree for once, or if the wine was just tired, or if it had been over heated at some point during it's life, but this was not a good experience. I actually poured out both bottles and opted for something else from my cellar. First time I've EVER poured out a Turley. Just seemd tired, all alcohol and lacking fruit. A shame I waited this long to drink! 2 to go and interested to see if they are similar. Stay tuned.

Still one of my favorite cabs. Had at Cinch next to a 78 Ridge. This wine is beautiful, with complex green on top of the berries.

Ruby with amber rim. Very pronounced blackcurrant nose. Smooth and balanced palate. Awesome cab with just the right amount of age. Yum!
