In his earlier years, Larry Turley trained and worked as an emergency room physician. His entry into the wine world first came when he got home one night to discover someone camping on his property. It was John Williams, the soon-to-be winemaker at Spring Mountain. Their friendship eventually led to a business partnership, and in 1981 they started Frog’s Leap Winery together. In 1993 Turley sold his half of Frog’s Leap to Williams so that he could devoted himself to a small project focused on old-vine vineyards. He now makes 34 wines, the vast majority of which are single-vineyard-designate Zinfandels and Petite Sirahs. This Cabernet is from a vineyard planted in 1989 that forms the eastern border of the Turley estate; it is a classic Napa Valley Cab with ripe red berries and fragrant forest fruit on the nose, matched on the palate with smooth fine-grained tannins.
