TASTING NOTES

Rutherglen Estates Sparkling Shiraz Durif is a beautiful blend of 30% Durif grapes with 70% Shiraz grapes. The resulting wine features a deep red colour, with a dark haze lurking throughout. This dazzling Sparkling Shiraz Durif offers fresh aromas and flavours of chocolate, pepper, spice and anise. Subtle tones of residual sweetness and soft tannins combine with these magnificent characters to end the wine in a mouth filling and lingering finish. Made for consumption upon release, this sparkling red blend can also be cellared for 5 years. It tastes wonderful with Christmas turkey, and pork, asparagus and potato omelette.
