Mission Codename Gobble Gobble
Today’s Turkey Flat Vineyards 2009 Barossa Valley Mourvèdre is a heady blend of fruit and earth, with a fantastic finish that fans of spicy California Pinots will love.
This wine really caught our tasting panel by surprise, but the more time we spent with it, the more it grew on us. By the end, quite a few of our panelists were angling to secure a bottle or two for their personal cellars! The wine is rich and expressive, with plenty of lush fruit rounded out by earth and spice, that hit the sweet spot for us.
If you haven’t been won over by our previous Aussie offerings, this wine will delight and surprise you.
