2011 Turley Petite Sirah Hayne Napa

93 Stephen Tanzer - Aromas of blueberry, licorice and bitter chocolate are a bit stunted by the bottling.? Juicy, primary and tight, offering black fruit, bitter chocolate and espresso flavors framed by firm minerality.? There`s a creaminess lurking today but currently this wine is dominated by its sappy lift.? Finishes very long and sweet, with noble tannins.? This is carrying a relatively low 3.5 pH and appears to be built for a slow evolution in bottle.
