Fox Creek Vixen Sparkling Red NV
75% Shiraz, 15% Cabernet Sauvignon, 11% Cabernet Franc
"From batch NV23, it seems. Thanks for that detail on label, good people of Fox Creek. Shiraz is joined by cabernet sauvignon with some cabernet franc in the mix.
Juicy number, dark fruit, spice, a bit wishy washy but delivers a nice hit of dry, spicy, fuller flavoured sparkling red. Bubbles are fresh, dark-ripe-sweet berry flavours linger. There’s a lick of portiness and a good slug of cedary-clove character. Pretty overt in its style, but will be comforting in its obviousness to many. It’s a nice drink for the bucks, no doubt."

Winery & Vintage Info
First produced in 1997 and often described as a black forest gateau in a glass, it is almost the perfect descriptor for this rich, powerful and luscious Sparkling Red that is one of the cornerstones of Fox Creek’s portfolio.
The powerful fruit flavour profile of our Shiraz and rich structural tannins of the Cabernet Sauvignon, complemented by the focus and herbal lift of the Cabernet Franc, combine to give the wine an exquisite balance and drinkability.
A blend of selected components from various vintages, carefully blended to achieve our classic Vixen style. It is made to be a rich, fruity and full flavoured wine with a party attitude that sparkling red aficionados will adore.
Bright cherry red with a fine sparkling bead. Leafy herbs, raspberry, red cherry, musk sticks, strawberry and cream, cinnamon, vanilla, milk chocolate.
A silky palate oozing raspberry, red cherry, strawberry and cream, spicy vanillin oak, gingerbread, milk chocolate roasted almonds. The wine has a clean finish with bright zingy acid and a crunchy tannin length.
