MOXIE is a non-vintage Sparkling Shiraz blended from multiple vintages, with a solera-style base dating back to 1995 for depth and complexity. Lifted by younger Shiraz from 2018, 2019, and 2020, it’s rich, dark, and vibrant with a balance of sweetness, bright acidity, and fine tannins. Best enjoyed well-chilled with good company—perfect with roast meats, cheese, or as an indulgent finish to a meal.
Alc. 13.5%

Other Reviews....
Who doesn’t love a good spurgles (sparkling Shiraz for the younger brigade)? Apparently, quite a few people, but as they say in the classics, more for us. This is a non-vintage style with material dating back as far as 1996. The reserve wines were blended with 2017 Shiraz as a base. An inky opaque purple, the flavours move through liquorice, chocolate mud cake, cloves, mocha and coffee beans. This is bright, ripe and rich, and of course, wonderfully exuberant. A sparkler of medium length, this is quite delicious.
