The Turkey Flat Pedro Ximenez NV Half Bottle (375ml) is a richly flavoured fortified wine from the Barossa Valley, crafted from one of the last remaining Pedro Ximenez plantings in the region. Produced using a traditional solera system dating back to 1997, the wine develops significant depth and complexity through extended maturation in French oak hogsheads. The nose is intensely aromatic, revealing notes of marmalade, cumquat, dried apricot and citrus peel layered with hints of roasted nuts, spice and caramelised fruit.
On the palate, it is luscious and full-bodied with a velvety texture balanced by freshness and spirit integration. Rich flavours of apricot conserve, orange marmalade, fig and toffee unfold across the palate, supported by subtle nutty and oxidative complexity from oak maturation. Despite its concentration, the wine maintains balance and persistence, finishing long and warming with citrus-driven lift and savoury depth. The 375ml format makes it particularly suited to dessert service, gifting or enjoying over multiple occasions.
Ben’s Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this Pedro Ximenez is an excellent choice for customers who enjoy richly textured fortified wines with layered dried fruit and nutty complexity. Particularly well suited to blue cheese, sticky date pudding, dark chocolate desserts or fruit cake. Best served lightly chilled or at cool room temperature to highlight its depth and balance. Drinking beautifully now and will continue to hold its character for many years when stored correctly after opening.
