3/28 Tasting - Emeri de Bortoli

Name: Emeri de Bortoli Sparkling Shiraz
Variety: Shiraz
Region/Country: South Eastern Australia
Year: NV
Price: $9.95

Shop's Review: A relatively light, fresh style of sparkling Shiraz, with berries and hints of chocolate picking up just a touch of sweet vanilla on the finish.

My Review: This was my first time tasting a sparkling Shiraz.  It smelled like ripe berries.  My palate detected hints of cherries and walnuts.  It was light because of the carbonation.

I did not drink this wine with food.
