1 x Majella Sparkling Shiraz 2022 ~ Coonawarra South Australia

92/100 Shanteh Wale, Halliday Wine Companion
91/100 Campbell Mattinson, Halliday Wine Companion (2021 vintage)

5 Stars Winery - James Halliday

Silver - Royal Adelaide Wine Show (2021 vintage)

Shanteh Wale, Halliday Wine Companion "The base wine sees maturation in second- and third-use French oak hogsheads. On lees for 14 months. Kalamata olive, blackberry and mulberry. Cinnamon, nutmeg and clove. Shiso leaf and coffee grinds. Nicely weighted with spice and fine tannins. A balanced sweetness."

Campbell Mattinson, Halliday Wine Companion "This slips down easily. Ripe/sweet redcurrant and plum flavours, pure and free, run evenly and openly through an uncomplicated palate. Talk about smooth. As dangerously drinkable as they come." (2021 vintage)

Sparkling red wines are a great Australian tradition, and along with other wineries, Majella has kept the tradition alive with their very popular sparkling Shiraz.

Majella Sparkling Shiraz is bottled fermented on "lees" for just on 24 months. The wine is then disgorged and a small amount of "liqueur" (sweetener) is added. In true Aussie tradition some fantastic vintage port is used as the sweetener.

Majella is one of the most awarded small wineries in Australia. Critics consistently rate vintages of this sparkling Coonawarra wine highly.

1 x Georges Duboeuf Ecusson Merlot 2021 ~ IGP PAYS D'OC, France

Bronze - Wine Review Online
Bronze - Wine Spectator

Wine Review Online "This is a Merlot for the masses, a fruity Merlot that delivers juicy notes of plum and bing cherry with a touch of spice and supple tannins. Though hardly profound or even exceptionally complex, it is an enjoyable wine impeccably made that should please any crowd. Perfect for a summer gathering around the barbecue."

The Winemaker "This wine has a harmonious nose that reveals kirsch and red berry aromas. Full-bodied and smooth in the mouth, with a fine, fruity finish."

This wine is produced by Les Vins Georges Duboeuf is one of the largest wine producers in France founded by the late Georges Duboeuf who was affectionately known as 'le roi du Beaujolais' (the king of Beaujolais) or sometimes pape du Beaujolais (Pope of Beaujolais). Les Vins Georges Duboeuf produces a staggering 3 million cases of wine annually. The company is most well-known for its popularization and production of Beaujolais wines. In 2018 Georges’ passed control of his company to his son Franck Duboeuf, who is considered to be one of the key specialists in Beaujolais, its terroir and its wine, and has shifted production to focus more on Beaujolais Nouveau.

Languedoc-Roussillon is a hugely important and historic wine region that produces over a third of French wine each year. The output of Languedoc Roussillon exceeds that of the entire United States, and has hundreds of thousands of acres under the vine, growing a wide range of both red and white grapes. Languedoc-Roussillon is one of the oldest and most important wine regions in the world, with a history that stretches back millennia to the ancient Greeks, who adored its warm and humid Mediterranean climate which is ideal for viticulture.

Merlot is a red wine grape variety with strong historic ties to Bordeaux and the southwest of France. It is the predominant variety in most wines from Saint-Émilion and Pomerol, the area in which the variety originated. Merlot is now widely planted in wine regions across the world and, in terms of the volumes of wine produced internationally, it is rivalled only by its Bordeaux companion, Cabernet Sauvignon.
