Winemaker Notes

#16 Wine Spectator Top 100 of 2017

Planted in 1885, Ueberroth is the oldest of Turley's Zinfandel vineyards. Located closer to the sea than any other site the winery works with, you can smell the salt air from the top of the hill. These ungrafted, head-trained vines are planted on very steep limestone slopes. The high pH of the soil makes for a very high acid wine, elevating the ripe fruit flavors from this historic certified organic vineyard.

Professional Ratings

  • 95
    From one of the more famous Turley vineyards (planted in 1885), the 2014 Zinfandel Ueberroth Vineyard comes from a site just down the street from the James Berry Vineyard of Justin Smith and his beloved Saxum Winery. It tips the scales at a whopping 16.1% natural alcohol. This is another killer Zinfandel with terrific minerality, focus and precision, but with thick, rich, blueberry and black raspberry flavors, a full-bodied mouthfeel, and a stunningly long finish. This is a profound example of Zinfandel at its best and another compelling reason why Larry Turley and his staff have, for more than two decades, made some of the most prodigious Zinfandels in California.

    An impressive combo of refinement and torque. This features ripe, rich fruit backed by great minerality and structure, with notes of raspberry and blackberry plus licorice, sage and pepper.

Turley aims to be stewards of some of California’s most distinctive vineyards, producing authentic wines that reflect their heritage.

Unapologetically bold, spice-driven and jammy, Zinfandel has secured its title as the darling of California vintners by adapting well to the state's diverse microclimates and landscapes. Born in Croatia, it later made its way to southern Italy where it was named Primitivo. Fortunately, the imperial nursery of Vienna catalogued specimens of the vine, and it later made its way to New England in 1829. Parading the true American spirit, Zinfandel found a new home in California during the Gold Rush of 1849. Somm Secret—California's ancient vines of Zinfandel are those that survived the neglect of Prohibition; today these vines produce the most concentrated, ethereal and complex examples.

The largest and perhaps most varied of California’s wine-growing regions, the Central Coast produces a good majority of the state's wine. This vast California wine district stretches from San Francisco all the way to Santa Barbara along the coast, and reaches inland nearly all the way to the Central Valley.

Encompassing an extremely diverse array of climates, soil types and wine styles, it contains many smaller sub-AVAs, including San Francisco Bay, Monterey, the Santa Cruz Mountains, Paso Robles, Edna Valley, Santa Ynez Valley and Santa Maria Valley.

While the Central Coast California wine region could probably support almost any major grape varietiy, it is famous for a few Central Coast reds and whites. Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon and Zinfandel are among the major ones. The Central Coast is home to many of the state's small, artisanal wineries crafting unique, high-quality wines, as well as larger producers also making exceptional wines.
