2023 Turley Petite Syrah, Hayne Vineyard Beaujolais this Cabernet Franc is nicely95 97 Points Vinous: The 2023 Petite Syrah Hayne Vineyard is all pedigree, all class. Silky, aromatic and beautifully resonant, the 2023 is seriously, impressive. Nearly seamless, the Hayne offers up copious red toned fruit, blood orange, mint, spice and pomegranate. There's plenty of tannin, but it is nearly buried by the sheer fruit richness of this renowned St. Helena site in an outstanding vintage.
