Visits with my dad mean Turley. Baked raspberry and blackberry. Cocoa butter. Brambley things. Black pepper. Licorice. Cloves and other baking spices. A splash of orange rind/zest (like an earl grey/ bergamot thing on the back palate) like mulled wine. Per other commenters, port-like (16.2%!), but balanced with great acid and the perfect wine for a chilly Jersey November evening as this Californian acclimates to wearing her winter wool coat again for the first time in 18 months…

An outstanding wine. Dark berries, dried fruits, mocha. Rich and supple. One of the best Turleys.

Full body and smooth. Worked well with salmon and lentils on the skillet.
