The Primo Estate JOSEPH Sparkling Red NV is one of Australia’s most iconic sparkling wines, crafted in McLaren Vale using a unique solera-style system that blends young Cabernet, Merlot and Shiraz with decades-old reserve wines dating back to the 1960s. This meticulous approach creates a wine of exceptional depth, complexity and consistency, often regarded as a benchmark for the sparkling red category.The nose is rich and layered, showing blackberry, plum and dark cherry, intertwined with notes of spice, cedar, leather and subtle chocolate.
On the palate, it is full-bodied and velvety, with fine bubbles, soft tannins and a generous, rounded texture. Dark fruit, spice and aged complexity are balanced by freshness, leading to a long, smooth and indulgent finish. The style is opulent yet balanced, offering both richness and finesse.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a true Australian classic and a must-try for customers looking for something unique and celebratory. It’s perfect for festive occasions and pairs beautifully with roasted meats, BBQ or holiday dining. Drink now for full expression—no need to cellar.
