Turkey Flat 2009 Grenache

This might possibly end up your favourite wine from Barossa Valley producer Turkey Flat. Made from grapes from low cropping, nearly century old Grenache vines (unusually for the Barossa – goblet shaped)  the intensely concentrated result is one that displays an elegance & grace that develops over excellent bones in maturity.

With aromas of warmly spiced raspberry & cherry, it is fresher on the palate than on the nose.  Medium bodied, finely textured with a long peppery finish. A great wine with food and at this price, should be a staple if your cellar where it will develop more savoury characters.
