2004 Turley Dusi

Drinking at home.

2004 Turley Zinfandel Dusi Vineyard - first whiff of the nose showed the alcohol was a little sharp, which wasn't too much of a surprise. The nose was very sweet, almost jammy, with black cherries notes. Lovely fragrance like sandalwood, and lots of spices. The palate was a little savory some 30 minutes after opening, but the acidity was also showing. In its 20th year, the wine was still full-bodied, and while the tannins have surely softened, this was by no means a light-bodied wine.
