Turkey Flat is an Australian winery located in Tanunda, in the middle of South Australia's Barossa Valley wine-growing region.[1] The history of Turkey flat wines began in 1847[1] when Johann Frederick August Fiedler planted Shiraz vines near Bethany Creek. The vines planted in 1847 are some of the oldest vines used for commercial wine production today. In 1865 the Schulz family became the owners of the Turkey Flat property.[1] Peter and Christie Schulz are the current owners.
