A distinctive Australian style, this wine is produced by Turkey Flat Vineyards in Barossa Valley, where Shiraz thrives in warm conditions. Sparkling Shiraz is a traditional regional speciality, combining the depth of red wine with the lift of carbonation, and Turkey Flat is widely regarded as one of its benchmark producers. The wine is based entirely on Shiraz, delivering both richness and structure within a sparkling format.
Production involves creating a base red wine before secondary fermentation to introduce effervescence, resulting in a style that retains intensity while gaining freshness and vibrancy. The balance between sweetness, tannin, and acidity is carefully managed to ensure the wine remains structured yet approachable. Positioned in the mid to premium tier, it offers a unique and characterful expression, combining heritage with a bold, modern appeal.
