Majella Sparkling Shiraz 2006

It's a great wine for any occasion, and goes well with most food styles. Spicy licorice and intensely powerful Shiraz. Rich and leathery. A beauty. Ray Jordan - The West Australian. "Great with bacon and eggs"

Sparkling red wines are a great Australian tradition, and along with other wineries Majella has kept the tradition alive with our very popular sparkling Shiraz. Our Shiraz is bottled fermented on "lees" for just on 48 months. The wine is then disgorged and a small amount of "liqueur" (sweetener) is added. In the true Aussie tradition we use some really fantastic vintage port. The wine is now packaged under a "Crown Seal" which eliminates any problems with leakage or cork taint.
