Note di degustazione
Spending between 9-12 months on tirage, this is based on a mother blend that dates back to 1978 and is one-third bottled each year and topped up with the current vintage. The Rockford VP forms the basis of the dosage liqueur. This has such a tarry nose with a wealth of fresh and attractive blackberries and dark plums on offer, and delivers a smooth, creamy, dark chocolate infused finish. Thereâs a very balanced core in play here. Disgorged in 2017. Delicious to drink now, but this really ages well. Try with 10-plus years aging on cork.

One of the best sparkling Shiraz I've ever tasted, the August 2017 disgorgement of Rockford's NV Black Shiraz is a beauty. Loaded with chocolate and black cherry notes, it's medium to full-bodied, rich, dark and concentrated, with a long, dusty finish. These wines are ready to drink when released and typically should be consumed over the next 3-4 years.
Sparkling. Sweet black fruit, juicy yet sophisticated and balanced. Long and intense – loads of American oak, but if you can't have that in Aussie Shiraz, where can you have it? Absolutely delicious! (RH)
