Tasting - Emeri de Bortoli Sparkling Shiraz

Name: Emeri de Bortoli Sparkling Shiraz
Variety: Shiraz
Region: South Eastern Australia
Country: Australia
Year: NV
Price: $9.95
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: The wine smelled like grapes or Concord grape jelly. I thought the taste was very nice, but the sparkling part of the wine was just strange. It wasn't bad, necessarily, but the bubbles were just not expected for that heavy of a wine. It did have a good aftertaste.

Food? I did not have this wine with food.
