Best’s Great Western Sparkling Shiraz was re- introduced at
Best’s in 2006 after almost 20 years of absence. The sparkling
Shiraz style is synonymous with Great Western and has been
made in the region since the early 1900s.
Best’s Sparkling Shiraz epitomises the regional characteristics
with plenty of spice and plummy fruit characters. The base
wine is left on yeast lees on bottle for 22 months or more and
disgorged in the traditional method. The dosage liqueur for this
wine contains a small quantity of very old Best’s Liqueur
Muscat that gives the wine an added layer of interest and
complements the style
