About this product
Semi Sweet, Full Bodied style of ShirazPairs well with BeefFox in the Hen House: an easy-to-understand common expression, symbolizing a great disruptor. In this case, it’s the market for Australian reds, with its craft wine offerings and innovative, irreverent marketing. Our Sparkling Shiraz has a deep burgundy colour and an abundance of aromas that include blackcurrant, strawberry and blackberry jam, with underlying hints of menthol and spice. The palate is lively and refreshing displaying plums and cassis, with hints of chocolate.

Delectably expressed, the fragrant bouquet shows blackberry jam, dark plum, cocoa, anise and hazelnut aromas, leading to a flavoursome palate that is richly fruited and plush. It is attractively sweet with vibrant fruit flavours and smooth texture, finishing long and mellow. At its best: now to 2020.
