Score 93/100 · Drink 2018-2026, William Kelley, Wine Advocate, Sep 2018

From a site Turley owns in Paso Robles, the 2016 Zinfandel Pesenti Vineyard exhibits a boisterous, fruit-driven bouquet of ripe raspberries, cherries and kirsch. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, ample and generous, with tangy acids and fine structuring tannins largely concealed in a sweet core of fruit, tangy acids, light structuring tannins asserting themselves on the back end. It's one of the most charming and immediate of this year's single-vineyard bottlings.

The 2016 Zinfandel Pesenti Vineyard is another fabulous wine. Creamy and dense, especially through the middle, the Pesenti screams with varietal and Paso Robles character. Bright acids add more than enough vibrancy to play off the rich, powerful fruit in this super attractive Zinfandel.
