Bright and deep crimson red, the aroma is abundant in jubed red fruits, Christmas cake and a subtle toasted oak lift.

Sparkling Shiraz is a unique Australian wine style, and former Chief Winemaker Andrew Wigan was inspired to make a great sparkling wine from Barossa Shiraz in the 1980s. 

Often referred to as the ‘Jewel in our Crown’ our Black Queen Sparkling Shiraz is a unique and indulgent wine using 100% Barossa grapes. The 2019 was sourced from two long term growers of premium Shiraz Rohrlach and Ruediger planted in the Ebenezer and Light Pass. 

The low-yielding 2019 vintage has made for an exceptionally intense Black Queen - rich and delicious. With naturally supple and silky tannins, the wine is soft and abundantly rich in dark blue fruits with a lovely trifle and strawberries and cream character. Gentle beading and delicate, soft moussing makes the palate luscious and seductive!

A brooding, savoury dark chocolate backbone of flavour balanced with sweet perfumed oak notes leads to a great length of blackberry jam and satsuma plum conserve.
