The Barossa was predicted to support Rhône varietals at settlement (see Baron’s of Barossa ‘ Vineyards of the Empire’ for source, if needed). While the red varieties from this region are now very established, the whites remain marginal and less known. Growing Marsanne, Viognier and Roussanne and also blending them together can be considered the white counterpoint to blends made from Shiraz, Grenache and Mataro. These varieties ‘belong’ in the Barossa and are especially appropriate to Turkey Flat, considering our vineyards lie near the North Para River and therefore close to the valley floor

Food Pairing: As a younger wine it pairs extremely well with seafood, or lighter white meats.
