Turnbull Wine Cellars Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2017
95 Points Parker A fantastic 2017 Napa Cabernet from Turnbull Cellars. Highly recommended. Made from all estate fruit from the Fortuna, Leopoldina, and Amoenus Vineyards, the Turnbull 2016 Napa Valley Cabernet is a great introduction to the Turnbull Winery. Winemaker Peter Heitz is garnering great acclaim for the work he's been doing at this small production facility, and it shows in this bottle. Of the vintage, Heitz says: “This wine captures the essence of where we farm in the Napa Valley. A wine of integrity, it’s a blend that we make to share at our own family table. A quintessential dirt to bottle wine that’s approachable at release and downright delicious. Robert Parker: "...Readers should check out Turnbull Wine Cellars without delay."

Fruit forward, relaxed tannins. Some spice. Easy drink wine. Not overly exciting but a wine that will appeal to a wide array of drinkers.

2017. Nice round mouth feel, and some dark fruit. More medium bodied. None of the flint, tobacco, forest elements I like in Napa cab. Good quality for price (K+L mark down).

Bold, rich, smooth, flavorful with a great nose! Coats the glass and every sip is filled with black currents, cherry and oak. Delicious!

Put on a bit of weight and complexity with a few hours air. For a basic house cab this is showing well, nice mix of dark red fruits.

Really solid, ripe bold Cabernet. Muddled fruit up front, cassis and spice box follow. Hard to put this down, just waiting for the next sip. Great QPR. 84% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Merlot, 2% Cabernet Franc, 4% Petit Verdot, 2% Malbec Read Less »

Tasted like a <$20 bottle. Good but not the quality I expected for the price.

Great value for a Napa Cab. This is their entry bottling and the quality shows. No brained for the price.
