The colour is rose petal pink with a panoply of red fruit flavours such as red cherries, freshly cut strawberries and red currants, with herbal notes, fresh acidity and an ever so slight 'spritz' on the palate from naturally retained CO2. Turkey Flat Rose is a blend of Grenache (52%), Shiraz (26%), Cabernet Sauvignon (16%), Dolcetto (6%) . Each of these varieties adds its own character to make this our most complex Rose yet. This is the first vintage of this wine to be bottled with a screw cap closure. Australia is ideally suited to producing and consuming something as fruity, refreshing and reviving as an ice cool glass of Rose. We enjoy the perfect climate and have the ideal grape varieties, as well as the perfect food culture to complement this style of wine.
Turkey is still the leader in the top class Rose stakes on account of the amount of savoury elements that are packed into this wine alongside the unutterably pretty red fruit. Granted this is another 'light' red rather than rose wine but, if I could only choose one wine, it is the only thing I would drink with the finest Indian cuisine imaginable.'
