Four Decades of Seppelt Show Sparkling Shiraz (Otto Sydney): Enjoyed alongside the 2001 vintage of the same wine. Pale golden in colour. Immediately on pouring it is a wow wine with an extraordinary nose, classic CC but overlain by an almost exotic "Batard-like" richness, with hints of pineapple and honeyed spice to add over the nutty citrus spine. With air it tightens up and becomes more restrained, and begins to fade after an hour or so. Beautiful wine and a great pair, thank you Phil T.

In magnum format. Appeared to be late release. Wine opened in 3+ hrs and lasted 3+. Mineral and nutty. Many more years to go.
