  • Deep and port-like but unfortunately lacking in the bubbles it once had. Still nice to drink with spicy and earthy foods. Lesson learned is to get these and drink them younger.

  • Gorgeous, deep, redolent with berries and spice. Unfortunately, it had lost much of the bubbles. Still nice.

  • Fun to drink. Wasn't sure what kind of glass to use. Ended up with champagne slipper glasses which looked nice. Crisp yet plum fruity. Not sure if I would get again but not a bad drink on a summer evening.

  • Appearance: Bright and clear, it has deep ruby color, with fading rims and legs.
    Nose: Clean, with medium (+) intensity aromas of red fruit such as raspberry, strawberry and sweet cherries, oak notes of vanilla, kernel notes of chocolate, dairy notes of cream, sweet spice of clove. The wine is youthful.
    Palate: Dry with medium acidity, the wine has medium tannin of ripe and well-integrated texture, showing high alcohol and medium (+) body. It has medium (+) flavors of red fruit such as raspberry, strawberry and sweet cherries, oak notes of vanilla, some sweet spice of clove. The wine has a medium finish.
    Conclusion: Good quality Australian sparkling shiraz with a sweet red fruit nose jumping out of the glass, with decent complexity, the wine did not have much bubbles which is typical of the sparkling shiraz, but still providing a nice fizziness on the palate. With reasonable concentration and finish, it is ready to drink now and not intend for further ageing.

  • Great and fun to drink. Love the interesting change with the cold, sparkling red wine. Good change of pace, and great on a hot day with a picnic.
