RRP: $20.00
In 1988 Morris decided to produce a Sparkling red wine known then as Sparkling Burgundy. Shiraz was the traditional base but our winemakers discovered that adding some Durif, which flourishes in Rutherglen, adds an extra richness and flavour to the wine.
The Morris Sparkling Shiraz Durif is a unique sparkling red with intense beading and rich robust flavour. The soft and ripe fruit characteristics of the Shiraz base are elevated through the seamless blending of rich savoury spiced notes of Durif, to create complexity and intrigue.
A range of vintages were selected for inclusion with the older wines imparting soft and mature flavours while the younger wines provide a vibrant fruit lift. After blending all components of the base, the wine is bottled with yeast and allowed twelve to eighteen months contact before the yeast is removed.
