Produced in Barossa Valley by Turkey Flat Vineyards, one of the region’s oldest family-owned estates, this wine reflects a distinctive Australian interpretation of a traditionally Spanish style. The Pedro Ximenez grape, more commonly associated with southern Spain, has a long history in the Barossa, where warm conditions allow for full ripening and the development of concentrated flavours. Turkey Flat is known for preserving heritage varieties, and this wine highlights both regional character and historical continuity.
Fruit is harvested at high ripeness and fermented to retain natural richness, with fortification used to preserve sweetness in line with classic styles. Maturation takes place in seasoned oak, encouraging gradual development while maintaining balance between sugar and structure. The resulting wine sits within the premium dessert category, offering a bold yet controlled expression that bridges Old World inspiration with New World generosity.
