NV Stelle Nere Sparking Shiraz
$55.00
/ 750ml bottle
Sparkling Shiraz is Australia’s gift to the world of wine. A staple at Barossa celebrations and a feature of the festive season. Our father, Richard, loved red wine and the cosmos, and he always encouraged us to reach for the stars. We dedicate Stelle Nere, Italian for black stars, to his memory.

- Shiraz
Colour
Medium depth, crimson with a red rim.
Aroma
Rich, ripe plum and raspberry jam with hints of sweet oak and yeasty creaminess.
Palate
The juicy fruits and creamy vanilla mingle on the palate with an amazingly fine bead. Saucy and savoury, secondary characters from the older base wines add to the complexity with suede-like tannins and balanced sweetness rounding off the finish.
Food Pairing
Anytime on Christmas Day, particularly for breakfast! Any time of the year really. Serve chilled and be sure to have extra bottles on hand as you will run out.
"These are wines of great historical significance, not to mention quality, and should occupy a lofty place in the pantheon of Australian wine."
