Red core with a hint of garnet on the rim. Hint of mint, lots of red and black fruits with a touch of Luden’s cherry cough drops. Smooth and soft on the palate with lots of fruit. Sweet fruity finish.

Dark ruby core with a lighter pinkish/garnet rim. Spicy and medicinal on the nose with some black fruits. Very fruity on the palate. A touch of heat leading to a jammy, somewhat cloying sweet spicy finish.

Bright ruby color with thick, frothy pink bubbles. Spicy, fruity nose with some nice earth and game notes. Sweet red fruit (cherry, raspberry) on the front palate. Tons of tiny bubbles fill the mouth, making it fresh and invigorating. Lingering candied strawberries on the finish. A blend of 70% Malbec (rare for Australia) and 30% Shiraz.
Instead of a cork, they have decided to use a crown cap (think beer bottle). This keeps the wine fresh and full of bubbles while reducing any chance of flaws caused by the cork. Bubbles in red wines fade quickly (from the tannins) so chill this wine down and enjoy it with several friends. Great before a meal, and goes really well with turkey.

Dark ruby core with a medium ruby rim. Jammy fruit aromas of blueberry and blackberry around touches of wet earth, black truffle and a hint of jalepeno. Smooth entry on the palate with medium acidity. Full bodied with flavors of dark cherry and orange zest. Jammy mid-palate and a somewhat short finish.
