2012 Reillys Sparkling Shiraz

Sourced from Reilly’s St Clare Vineyard, this Sparkling Shiraz was matured in French oak for 18 months.

Excellent purple tinged frothy mousse that holds very well to eventually reveal an opaque dark purple black base colour. Super fine bead that shows excellent persistence. The nose offers up ripe blackberry and dark plum top notes over a touch of liquorice and vanillin oak. Full bodied and rich the palate is filled with flavours of ripe blackberries, dark chocolate and liquorice over a background of vanillin oak. Creamy mouthfeel with an aftertaste of dark chocolate, ripe blackberries, liquorice and vanillin oak.
Drink over the next 5-6 years.
