2005 Turnbull

[TheEngineer]

I really liked their 04's but this one is very different. Much more structure and very tight on opening. Definitely needed the decanting. Once opened, it was a structured napa valley cab, very different from the Jordan that was opened at the same time. More complex than the Jordan and less ripe, lush and soft. Higher levels of acidity also. I preferred this wine more and more as the night progressed.
