Turkey Flat’s rich Barossa reds are invariably outstanding but pick of the 2010s is this once humdrum variety. Enticing spicy oak and plum aromas show earthy development with long, silky tannins on the full palate.

It''s grown on 90 year old vines and blessedly it''s all about the fruit; there''s not a lot of oak here. It was a hot vintage but the conditions don''t seem to have done this grenache any harm. I may be under-rating it. It tastes iof raspberry, licorice, five-spice and earth. The wine''s fleshy, velvety tannin keeps the warm flavour in tidy check. It has good length and good up-front appeal, but it''s likely to age well over many years. It''s a bright version of an old-fashioned South Australian burgundy. It had me lapping it up.
