1992 Leasingham Classic Clare Sparkling Shiraz

Notes sourced from BRL Hardy.

Established in 1893 Leasingham Wines has been an integral part of the Clare Valley for over 100 years. The renowned dryland Schobers vineyard in South Australia's Clare Valley produces fruit of rare intensity and flavour. Made from 100% Clare Valley Shiraz this wine has been released after 7 years of bottle age. Fine and persistent bead. Deep red in colour with a slight amber hue. This rich, powerful and flavoursome wine, resplendent in character and complexity shows mature Shiraz fruit. Distinct spice, liquorice, aniseed and camphor characters are enhanced by creamy yeastiness, while a firm, yet soft tannin structure supports a profound depth of flavour. Excellent concentration and very long liquorice and aniseed aftertaste. 13.5% alcohol volume.
