TN: Turkey Flat Sparkling Shiraz (Disgorged 4th November 2004) – 12.5%
Purple/red. Heaps of spices, quality oak, chocolate/cherry ripe and dark fruits on the nose. Very, very complex. These favours fully fill the palate with good power and fascinating delicacy and harmony. Finish is full of soft and fine tannins. Absolutely gorgeous. Needs to be drunk chilled as the sweetness becomes a little obvious as it warms - no issues though. Will age very well. I find the 12.5% alcohol level a little hard to believe. The latest admission to the highest Sparkling Shiraz echelon! 18/20, Excellent, 91/100.
Kind regards,
Adair
