Sparkling (Shiraz or Red) Recommendations?

[burmans]

How much was it on sale?

From memory under $30, @28.68 rings a bell (but could be totally wrong).

Half price does sound good

Qantas wines have Bests ‘17 on a QFF points sale atm that caught my eye - not sure what it is like though

Calling @redbigot, I believe he has tasted this one recently. Bests are a shiraz specialist and my understanding is that this is a very good SS.

Normally wouldn't be interested in using points but I have a fair few and this actually looks like a reasonable use of points (about 1.6/1.7c value) and its not as if Ill be able to go to Europe any time soon.

Still available @ $28.78 for delivery some address/store settings - Tuggeranong ACT and Southport QLD are the only ones I've checked/confirmed just now.

My local has stock, and I can't find another store but it's priced just under $50

Yeah, I have read that thread. I know what's good, what I've struggled with is finding something good at a good price. The Bests may be best on offer at the moment, cant get the Teusner to price correctly in my area (Sydney).

For me, Rockfords sparkling shiraz is always a good deal

A simple hack can have your wines delivered to your address - it has been posted on Dan Murphy thread.

Very nice wine but certainly doesn’t rate as a deal for me. Plenty of other options for me outrate as regards value for money.

In fact I’d go so far as to say the last Rockfords I had was a bit underwhelming, good but not good enough for the price.

Wild Duck Creek for me.

Wild Duck Creek for me.

I have ordered a selection of new Wild Duck Releases - I don't think they made a sparkling red this year.

Wine reviews: Bursting the cultural cringe bubble

Tasting Australia's social media posts seemed fixated on celebrating French Champagne, while a quintessential Australian sparkling style might have been more appropriate. Here's some of that style's intriguing history and four of the best for you to try.

Castagna’s new biodynamic gems

It would be hard to pigeonhole Julian Castagna. Is he a maverick? Yes, there’s certainly a bit of the maverick in him. Is he a renegade? Not really, but there’s a certain spirit of individualism about the man. #Beechworth #CastagnaAdam'sRibChardonnayViognier #CastagnaAdam’sRibTheRed2019
