"The establishment date of Turkey Flat is given as 1990 but it might equally have been 1870 (or thereabouts), when the Schulz family purchased the Turkey Flat vineyard, or 1847, when the vineyard was first planted - to the very old shiraz that still grows there today and the 8ha of equally old grenache. Plantings have since expanded significantly, now comprising shiraz (24ha), grenache (10.5ha), cabernet sauvignon (5.9ha), mourvedre (3.7ha), and smaller plantings of marsanne, viognier and dolcetto." James Halliday
"A sinewy, chewy-tannined shiraz release from the 2022 vintage, slick with plush black cherry, blackberry and dark plum fruits along with hints of clove and dark spice, coal dust, olive tapenade, licorice, dark chocolate and earth. Plenty of structure and muscle on the palate with a broody aspect to the deep cassis-like fruit as it slowly retreats from view." 93pts | Dave Brooks | Halliday Wine Companion
"New practices, including applications of organic mulch under-vine, organic fertilisers mid-row and a strong emphasis on cover crop management have all become integral in our quest to restore soil health." (Winery)
