Katnook Founder's Block Sparkling Shiraz 2008

|
Sparkling reds are fast becomming an Australian specialty, and few do it better than Wayne Stehbens at Katnook. Blending primarily Shiraz grapes with a small amount of Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon for complexity, this is the perfect wine for after dinner cheeses, or for when you just want to shake things up a bit.
Colour :: Dark plum with light purple tinges.
Nose :: Enticing light raspberry and plum fruit aromas with hints of sweet liquorice and spice. Light, toasty oak notes add a subtle layer of complexity and balance.
Palate :: A rich and generous palate structure laden with raspberry and plum fruits is enhanced by the tantalising bubbles. Sweet spices and subtle toasty oak are rounded with fine soft tannins, all harmonising with the persistent lingering fruit flavours.
