Turley wines are often recognized as "making some of the best, if not the best Zinfandel in California for decades.

[2] Turley specializes in wines made from old-vine red Zinfandel.

They source fruit from older vineyards, some date back to the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

Starting out with just one location in St. Helena, Turley Wine Cellars soon expanded to Templeton with the purchase of the historic Pesenti winery, where Zinfandel had been planted since 1923.

By 2011, Turley Wine Cellars is annually producing approximately 16,000 cases of award-winning Zinfandel and Petite Sirah wines using multiple "small" vineyards located in Napa and Sonoma counties, and other Paso Robles locations.
