Tasting - Emeri de Bortoli Sparkling Shiraz

Name: Emeri de Bortoli Sparkling Shiraz
Variety: Shiraz
Region: South East Australia
Country: Australia
Year: NV
Price: $9.95

Winery Review: A relatively light, fresh style of sparkling Shiraz, with berries and hints of chocolate picking up just a touch of sweet vanilla on the finish.

My Review: The nose on this sparkler is really fresh and juicy. It starts off with just intense juice and effervescence and strong berry flavors and vanilla come in towards the mid palate and persist through the finish, which is surprisingly long for a sparkling wine. I've never had a sparkling Shiraz before and it certainly did not disappoint

I did not try this with food.
