Turley Wine Cellars Appraisal

2015 Turley Fredericks Vineyard Sonoma Valley Zinfandel

This is a 750ml bottle of 2015 Turley Zinfandel from Fredericks Vineyard in Sonoma Valley. The bottle is made of deep green, almost opaque glass (typical for premium red wines to protect against light degradation) and features a high-shoulder, Bordeaux-style silhouette. The label is a distinctive deep burgundy or maroon color with a textured finish, featuring 'TURLEY' in large, classic gold font on the right and specific vintage/vineyard information in smaller gold and white text on the left. The condition of the label shows minor signs of handling, including a small scuff mark above the winery name and another small nick near the bottom edge. Such imperfections are common in bottles stored in home cellars but can impact aesthetic value for high-end collectors. Turley Wine Cellars is highly regarded for its focus on old-vine Zinfandel, and the 2015 vintage is a well-established California vintage. The Fredericks Vineyard is a certified organic site known for producing concentrated, age-worthy wines. The capsule and cork are not fully visible but appear intact, suggesting proper vertical or horizontal storage within a residential setting.
