Brothers at War Single Vineyard Barossa Valley Shiraz This old vine Shiraz is sourced from a single vineyard in the Lyndoch Ranges, in the south-west of the Barossa Valley. The fruit is fermented 20% whole bunch with the balance destemmed but not crushed. The wine is then hand plunged twice daily for three weeks before being pressed to French oak (50% new) hogsheads and aged on lees for 18 months before bottling without fining or filtration.

Vintage conditions The 2019 growing season was a challenging one from the start with a very dry winter and spring with frost events in September disrupting budburst. Windy conditions affected flowering and further frost episodes and hail in November caused further challenges. Very hot and dry conditions during summer and lack of rain resulted in small berries and low bunch weights resulting in the lowest yields in recent decades. The resultant wines have great colour, intense flavours and firm tannins. Vineyard selection The “Home Block” Shiraz was exclusively sourced from our estate-grown Block 3A Shiraz vines planted in 1994. Winemaking Once the grapes have been identified to be of optimum maturation and flavour ripeness, the parcels are brought into the winery where they are destemmed and crushed into the open top fermenters. Manual pump overs are conducted twice daily to provide extraction of colour, flavour and tannins. Towards the end of fermentation, the wine is drained and then pressed to a combination of predominately new French oak barrels for 19 months maturation. Careful barrel selection takes place before the wine is blended. The wine is neither fined nor filtered. Tasting Evaluation Colour: Dark purple, with almost black core. Aroma: Intense bouquet of dark plum, black cherry, espresso, with mocha notes. Vanilla pod and gingernut biscuit hide in the background. Palate: Saturated palate of dark berries, savoury French oak spice complimented with fine grain tannins. Vibrant red apple acidity provides focus and length.

The One represents the pinnacle of winemaking expertise, offering a unique and unforgettable experience. Produced from Old Vines in the Barossa Valley this rich dark ruby coloured wine shows excellent oak balance with rich dark berry fruits along with dark chocolate on the nose and palate. This full-bodied rich and weighty wine shows layers of rich deep flavours, outstanding depth with a lasting long smooth finish.

After a few years of cellaring, this iconic Barossa Valley Shiraz from Turkey Flat has evolved into a bold yet beautifully balanced classic. The intense fruit has mellowed into rich, dark layers of blackberry, plum and spice, with the oak now seamlessly integrated. Still full-bodied, the wine shows added depth and softness, with silky tannins and a long, elegant finish. A refined expression of Barossa Shiraz that rewards time and patience.
