Silky and elegant, Cederman ages exceptionally gracefully––but that doesn't mean we'll judge you for popping it now. The fruit comes from sites on Howell Mountain ranging from 2,250’ to 2,600' feet in elevation. You'll feel it in the acidity, which makes the wine incredibly crisp and fresh.

Antonio Galloni

93 points

"The 2023 Zinfandel Cedarman is a very serious wine in this vintage. Dark and imposing, with serious gravitas, the 2023 packs an intense punch. Wild cherry, lavender, licorice, menthol, mocha and dried herbs all power through. This is a stellar botting and a great value, too."

Wine Spectator

93 points

"Robust and boldly structured, this Zin is defined by broad tannins and zesty acidity framed by black raspberry, briar patch and savory pepper flavors. Best from 2026 through 2033."

More about Turley Wine Cellars

To get your head around Zinfandel, you need to drink Turley, and we'd go further: you need to drink Turley to get your head around California, full stop. Few wineries have done more to find, farm and bottle the state's old vines, many of them planted in the late 1800s.

Larry Turley, a former emergency-room physician and co-founder of Frog's Leap, started Turley Wine Cellars in Napa in 1993. Tegan Passalacqua, one of the most influential figures in California's new wave, has led the winemaking since the early 2000s, and Larry's daughter Christina joined full-time in 2010. Today Turley makes around 50 wines from more than 50 vineyards up and down the state, from Napa and Alexander Valley to Lodi and Paso Robles, where the family also has a winery in Templeton.

The vineyards are organically farmed, and fermentations rely on native yeasts alone. The focus is old-vine Zinfandel and Petite Syrah, alongside rarities like Cinsault from the Bechthold vineyard in Lodi.

Juvenile is the place to start: Zinfandel from younger vines, including replantings in some of Turley's old-vine sites, the old vines of tomorrow. It shows the bright, zesty acidity that made Zinfandel prized in California before Prohibition. From there, the single-vineyard bottlings, like Dusi, Ueberroth and Pesenti, are a tour of California terroir.
