Public review: "A relatively light, fresh style of sparkling Shiraz, with berries and hints of chocolate picking up just a touch of sweet vanilla on the finish."
My review: Young, fresh nose with a good berry balance. The sparkliness in the mouth overwhelms the taste, however. It tastes cool, but not as sweet as I expected. Cleanses mouth well; not much aftertaste. I honestly didn't get many shiraz characteristics out of this one.
With food?: No, but I had just finished drinking some apple cider spiced herbal tea.
Did buy?: No
