Reviews and Ratings

Turkey Flat Butchers Block 2017 is a well-priced, medium-bodied Shiraz, Grenache and Mataro red wine blend, warming at nearly 15% abv, spicy and juicy with ripe red, dark plum, blackberry and minty flavours on the palate. Tannins are smooth. Pour with bison burgers and long beef ribs. The Shiraz, Grenache and Mataro are sourced from some of the 150 year-old-vines on the estate. - Community Wine Reviews

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
