Turkey Flat Sparkling Shiraz NV is a masterful expression of Barossa Valley’s rich vinicultural heritage, crafted through a meticulous Solera system with an average base wine age of three years. This sparkling Shiraz spends up to 24 months on lees after tirage, resulting in an elegant, persistent bead that elevates every sip.
Following disgorgement, a touch of Pedro Ximènez is added, imparting a delicate sweetness that balances the wine’s bold character with a luscious, moreish finish. The wine’s very dark ruby red hue invites you into a complex aromatic profile featuring ripe plums, prune, cherry, blueberry tart, panforte, and dark chocolate.
On the palate, it reveals a full-bodied intensity with dense, black fruit and rich chocolate notes. The smooth, spreading flavors evoke festive favorites such as Christmas cake and ripe plums, culminating in a vibrant, dark-colored celebration of taste. Fine tannins and a fresh, lingering complexity make this sparkling Shiraz both rich and approachable.
