Score 87/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, May 2008

Bright, dark red. Peppery red fruits on the rather cool nose and palate. Offers good definition and a juicy quality in the mouth but finishes with slightly aggressive alcohol (15.7%) and building tannins.

Score 87-89/100 · Drink 2007-2011, Robert Parker, Dec 2007

Acidity is not an issue for the 2006 Zinfandel Dogtown, but it is just uninspiring and not as exciting as some of the other Zinfandels from Turley. The wine has loads of earthiness, some crushed rock and berry fruit, and a straightforward, peppery spiciness. Drink it over the next 3-4 years. (Not yet released) Tel.
