Sparkling Red

"This is a serious wine, a masterpiece of blending and handcrafted attention to detail. It is rich, lengthy, balanced, stylish, profound and delicious. The age of the mother wine gives depth, complexity and softness….
Joseph Sparkling Red both defines and defies its genre: an iconic Australian unlike any of its peers. It confidently stands shoulder to shoulder with the world's classics" Jancis Robinson

Joe Grilli has a simple recipe for this wine: the base wine is made up of Australians red from the 1970s and 1980s, bought at auction and poured in as a base wine to which is added each year a barrel of "moda", Joe's classic amarone-style Cabernet Merlot and a barrel of his top Shiraz. He produces it every two year, liquered with an aussie "port" from the early 1980s. sounds simple doesn't it?
