Rich cherry and plum with spicy, peppery aromas and an underlay of blackberry and liquorice — the complex, full-bodied aromatic profile of a warm-fermented Sparkling Shiraz aged in a combination of old French and American oak barrels for depth and character.
Palate
Full-bodied and complex — an abundance of sweet berry fruit characters with soft tannins and the spicy, peppery depth that Australian Sparkling Shiraz at its most authentic delivers.
