Description
There is a great quote from wine scribe Max Allen describing sparkling red as “a complex, deep, purple-foaming drink with a lick of sweetness and supple, tongue-caressing texture’. Why wouldn’t we all give it a go?A very unique style to Australia, sparkling red has been made in the Grampians since the late 1800’s, most famously by winemaker guru Colin Preece in the 1930’s and 40’s.Our Woodfired Heathcote Sparkling Shiraz is particularly suited to the ‘foaming style’ with ripe, deeply scented fruit and soft vibrant tannins. Great summertime fizz.
Intense purple with fine crimson bubbles. Dark fruits, plums, spice. Soft, rich, delicate bead, balanced sweetness, quite calming.
