The Lobban Sparkling Shiraz is an original Spanish sparkling red wine produced by Scottish winemaker Pamela Geddes. Made from shiraz harvested in the 2018, this wine spends18 month s on lees before it it is disgorged. In the glass, this sparkling red has a vibrant garnet colour with a spicy fruit driven nose layered with hints of chocolate and vanilla. Black fruits dominate the flavour profile and the wine is well balanced with a long finish. The dosage (27g/L) is a licor of monastrell aged in oak, giving the wine a touch of sweetness along with some savoury spice. This sparkling wine is produced by the traditional method - the same process used in Champagne - whereby the base wine is made bubbly by a second fermentation in bottle. Show more
