Tasting Notes
Traditional Method Sparkling Shiraz. 30% new Hungarian oak. Disgorged in November 2018, with 20g/L dosage. Cherry and raspberry is dressed with twinkle and sparkle by way of clove and black pepper. Powdered cocoa, burnt orange and cedar round out the equation, leaving you giddy like a Christmas luncheon. - Winery Note
Established in 1999 by brothers Brian and Kevyn Joy, their respective son and nephew, Leighton Joy, now calls the shots.
The vineyard is nestled in the central Victorian high country amongst state forest and grazing pastures, and is managed by viticulturist Graeme Miles organically. Inviting the visiting grazers to help maintain unwanted growth between the vines, and incorporating methods such as composting and under-vine mulching to care for the red sandy and clay loam soils, the roots of the vines run deep, and yields are low, whilst fruit quality is high. - Pete L
