Craiglee Sparkling Red No. 8

Craiglee Sparkling Red No. 8

$70.00

Sparkling Shiraz from consistently one of the best Shiraz producers in Victoria, Craiglee, who is based in Sunbury just outside of Melbourne. This wine is made from the 2019 vintage, which is barrel aged for 12 months before undergoing method Champenoise bottle fermentation. This wine is both sweet-fruited with flavours of blueberry, blackberry and currants but also incredibly earthy, leathery and spicey driven. A lovely interplay makes it a very charming drink perfect for just drinking or better with roast meats, charcuterie and, of course, your Christmas spread!

Patrick Carmody, an agricultural science graduate, took over the management of his family farm in Sunbury in the early 1970s. When several bottles from the original winery were opened at a function in Melbourne, it became clear that the Sunbury site provided a unique terroir ideal for the growth of cool-climate wines. As a result Patrick planted vines on the site of the original vineyard in 1976 and processed the first wine in 1979. The first commercial quantity was released in 1982 with the 1980 Shiraz.
