The RW MOORE VINEYARD is one of California’s oldest and best known Zinfandel vineyards, planted in 1905! Many might know this vineyard from the Turley “EARTHQUAKE” bottling. Molly is the niece of Bill Moore (RW Moore) and of course Mike is an Hendry (From Hendry winery fame). Mike and Molly married in 2009, and produced their first vintage from the Moore Vineyard that year.
Bill Moore has owned the Moore Vineyard since 1986. At a time when many old zinfandel vineyards were being pulled and replanted to Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon, Bill had the foresight to preserve this important piece of Napa’s history and the wines that it produces. Today, less than 2% of Napa’s vineyard acreage is planted to Zinfandel. The Moore (earthquake vineyard) has been a Turley source for decades, so it was only fitting that Mike and Molly used it too.

FMW 95 Points: “This zin has character. It is graceful and loaded with bright rich red and black fruit. Full in body and well-structured on the palate. The is lush and offers up some baking spice, black pepper, and leather on the long lingering finish.”
Wine Enthusiast 92 Points: ”This is a richly layered and complex wine from the great estate site. It is juicy and expressive in bold flavors of cherry and blackberry. With a softness to the palate, it invites one into a supple tannin structure and integrated oak, finishing in just a subtle hint of vanilla.”
Winemaker Notes: “Full-bodied, yet graceful and smooth on the palate, this wine is delicious now but will show well for years to come. Characterized by black, brambly fruit, pepper, and warm spices.”
