So subtle. Not your typical bruising Aussie Sparkling Shiraz. Mellow, integrated tannins, resolved fruit, supporting acid... this wine was in the zone. Excellent aperitif and with nibbles.

Jun 2nd, 2018Sparkling Shiraz is an Aussie specialty and very appropriate on Christmas Day. This is interesting in that it is made by Ashton Hills with fruit from a 97 year old vineyard in the Clare owned by Wendouree. A rich mouth filling plummy palate with a gentle mousse soft tannins and acid with a long finish. Delicious!
