- About The Region -

South of Pays de Normandie and north of the mouth of the Loire River at Nantes lies the picturesque peninsula of Brittany which juts out like a nose from the French mainland into the Atlantic Ocean. The coastal area of Brittany, known as the Armor, is notoriously rugged, barbed with sharp rocks. Still, there are quaint beaches and safe harbors leading into the wooded interior, known as the Argoat, and between is the bocage, a complex patchwork of man-made earthen barriers and hedgerows which provide breaks from the ever-present coastal winds. The people here are prideful, despite their huddled villages, and share a unique identity as Celtic-speaking Bretons who settled here from Wales and Cornwall after the invasion of Britain by the Normans. Fish, butter, and salt is their lifeblood.

Turley Wine Cellars, “Del Barba Vineyard”, Zinfandel, Contra Costa County (2023)

“A unique site and deft hand makes this a fresh, gluggable Zin quite unlike the lacquered sugar-bombs we’re used to. Medium ruby color in the glass with magenta hues and light extraction; the aromatic nose shows raspberries, purple flowers, and sun-dried compost; the palate is dry and full-bodied, but mouthwatering and saline, with silken tannins, characteristic spice, and full-sun alcohol heat. 

Each sip makes me thirsty: Great on its own, but a solid pairing with beef, pâté, saucisse, and gnocchi.

The Turley family and winemaker Tegan Passalacqua specialize in working with old-vineyards and helped found the Historical Vineyard Society. This bottling, the lightest in their range, comes from the unique Del Barba vineyard planted in the 1890’s on a delta between the San Joaquin and Sacramento rivers. These head-trained vines, averaging over 50 years in age, grow in windblown sand that has the consistency of fine powdered sugar. It should be noted though, that urban sprawl from San Francisco and the extension of the nearby BART commuter line threaten this vineyard with long-term extinction.” - C.H.S.
