Best's Great Western Sparkling Shiraz | Grampians
One of Australia’s greats! Best’s Sparkling Shiraz was re-introduced by the winery in 2006 after almost 40 years of absence. This sparkling Shiraz style is synonymous with Great Western and has been made in the region since the early 1900s. Layers of aroma: roses, plum pudding, nutmeg, parmesan rind, blackberry and dark spices. Add in an undertone of meatiness and brioche from the lees contact in bottle and it demands to be tasted.

Production note
Best’s Sparkling Shiraz epitomizes the regional characteristics with plenty of spice and plummy fruit characters. The base wine is left on yeast lees in bottle for 22 months or more and disgorged in the traditional method. The dosage liqueur for this wine contains a small quantity of very old Best’s Liqueur Muscat that gives the wine an added layer of interest and complements the style.
