2005 Barossa Valley Rose

One of Australia’s finest roses is Turkey Flat’s 2005 Rose, a deep, bold offering made from a blend of 52% Grenache, 26% Shiraz, 16% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 6% Dolcetto. Its light to medium ruby color is accompanied by a big bouquet of sweet strawberries, cherry jam, a hint of currants. Medium-bodied, with enough acidity to balance moderate quantities of residual sugar, it should be enjoyed over the next 6-8 months. Importer: George Galey, American Estates Wines, Summit, NJ; tel.
