The Chook Sparkling Shiraz

Ive had this before but not a big fan after two different vintages. I don't know this last bottles vintage, but it has a fishy nose. I'll let it warm up and see what happens. There are much better sparkling Shiraz but hard to find.

Really interesting...fun. A tidal wave of crushed brambles if little else. Thanks Ethan!

Lovely, off dry, full body, with notes of blueberry. Paired well with shrimp cocktail.
