Sparkling Shiraz, once known as Sparkling Burgundy, is an Australian original, though it is little known by American wine consumers. Traditionally aged in used American oak, this Paringa version shows some subtle French oak notes. The deep purple-ruby color sparkles with a slight spritz that also helps to showcase the ripe raspberry aromas and flavors, accented with cedar and mocha notes. Finished at 13.5% alcohol, this unique, juicy sparkling red wine is just the right wine to have with dark chocolate desserts.
