Turley would be in line with the same price point, at least around me. That's how crazy their prices have been (Bedrock). For a daily zin, I would go with something like Saldo even thought I'm not crazy about the Prisoner wine co. One of my other daily favs is Dry Creek Vineyard. Looks like their Heritage Zin has also crept up in price but still good for around $25.

The Bedrock Old Vine Zin at $28 is reliable and a reasonable price point. It's my go to zin.

Went for some Aussie intensity.

66% Shiraz, 19% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Merlot and 5% Cabernet Franc matured for 18 months in French oak hogsheads, of which 20% were new.

Had some "Hill of Grace" by them and it was spectacular.

Team USA dipping into Aussie? Edit: I mean New Zealand. ☺️

This tastes hella fruity after straying from Paso the last few nights. Good.

Austin does like his purple prose!

Back to SA. Not as good as @NJE66 bottle.

Had this with some shrimp scampi I made. It was incredibly fresh for being a 27 year old white wine. Went perfectly against the fresh squeezed lemon juice of the scampi. Look at that cork though. It was touch and go to get it out.
