Sparkling Shiraz Wine- A Perfect Toast for Any Party

Pop goes the bottle of a red bubbly or sparkling red wine and you’ll see instant fun added to any party. The guests will immediately chill out and get impressed at the same time.

Sparkling red wines are being produced in Australia since 1880’s but gained more attention from the wine-lovers post 1980’s. Out of all the delectable sparkling red wines produced in Australia, sparkling Shiraz is the Aussie favourite. Aussies are absolutely devoted to this delicious, food friendly wine. All great qualities of a red sparkling wine can be found in this one. Sparkling Shiraz is also unique because of its grapes’ oak maturation process. Oak adds great complexity that gives Shiraz anedge over other great wines. The taste and tannins of juicy berries along with the bubbles and chill instantly uplift the mood of the drinker.

It can be quite a task to differentiate a good sparkling Shiraz from a bad one. In order to judge the quality of a sparkling Shiraz, keep these few things in mind. A good sparkling Shiraz wine would not be too sweet. It would be barely off-dry and should not make you feel any astringency on the finish. A great sparkling Shiraz would have some complexity and spice to it. Also, the finer the bubbles, the better the wine. Clumsy and coarse bubbles are indicators that the wine is not fine.

Due to its versatility, sparkling Shiraz pairs well with most cuisines. It makes a great drink for Christmas for its excellent pairing with turkey. So serve it as a toast for your coming Christmas celebrations and enjoy with friends and family!
