Spirits Wines

Various Vineyards, SAThis is a standard reference for wine lovers of sparkling red. It has always been affordable and consistent in quality. The 2002 is a touch drier than examples from previous vintages, and that’s not a bad thing, making the wine more suitable to have with a meal rather than simply being an aperitif wine. Excellent mauve white mousse. Fine very peresistent bead. Opaque crimson colour. The nose displays nuances of plum, spice and earth. The palate has generous mouth feel with plum, spice, black pepper and subtle earthy flavours emerging. Very good length, clean acid finish. Cellar 4-5 years (2008-2009)
