The 2007 Shiraz is purple-colored with a nose of spice box, game, lavender, and blueberry. On the palate it is a bit compressed and sinewy in the style of the vintage. The flavors are attractive and a few years of cellaring may fill it out.
The venerable Turkey Flat Vineyard has been owned by the Schutz family since 1865.
