Turley Zinfandel Buck Cobb Vineyard Amador 2018  - First Bottle

Reviews

93 Robert Parker's Wine Advocate -
The 2018 Zinfandel "Buck" Cobb Vineyard has a nose of warm peaches and blackberries with accents of autumn leaves, tangerine and floral potpourri. Medium-bodied, it has a soft frame, bright pops of freshness and a very pretty, perfumed character, finishing long and uplifted.
91-93+ Vinous -
The 2018 Zinfandel Buck Cobb Vineyard is bold and savory, with plenty of cedar, licorice, dried herbs, mint and pine character. Deceptive in its mid-weight feel, the 2018 pulses with real energy. Expressive, perfumed earthy notes add the closing shades of nuance.

Too late, we are SOLD OUT!
Turley, Turley, Turley...oh how we love you so. Just 36 bottles of the old Buck Cobb up for grabs. This is a cool high elevation site in Amador (1,500 feet) with volcanic and granitic soils on a beautiful hillside. This is Amador 2.0, all dry farmed and named after the original owner of this groovy site. This is just beautifully coaxed by Tegan showing all sorts of nuance and complexity behind the beautiful ripe red and black fruits.
