There’s nothing more patriotic than popping a bottle of red bubbles on Christmas Day — before and after is okay, too. It’s best with a subtle dark berry and plum fruit sweetness, as it is here, given depth and support from measured cedary oak that also offers trademark spice. Swell. - Tony Love

At the 2014 Limestone Coast Wine Show, Chinese judge Fongyee Walker awarded her International Judge's Trophy to Majella sparkling shiraz. ABC Rural quoted Walker, "It is the one wine of the whole set [of 418 wines] that I could safely give to every single person in China and they would like it". Majella make and barrel age a normal Coonawarra shiraz, before being bottled for secondary fermentation and maturation on yeast lees for about four years. After they disgorge the spent yeast cells from the bottle, the winemakers add a splash of fortified wine and reseal it. The result is Australia's traditional Christmas sparkler: an effervescent but real red with a lick of sweetness and a load of fruit flavour. - Chris Shanahan

    A very good sparkling red. Just about finished the last pack I bought, so excellent timing!

    I see DM have it. Will they price beat? How to go about it?

    They won't beat it. Anyway, buy direct and the winery makes all the money not the evil empire. Free shipping!

      Thank you. TBH, It's extremely tempting, but I'm too cheap to gamble $120 on 6 bottles of unknown grog. lol

    Buy one from DM, if you like it, buy 6 from the winery. Not rocket science!
