Description
 
Rockford can only be described as an icon, no matter how overused that word may be. It has a devoted band of customers who buy most of the wine through the cellar door or mail order. Some wine is sold through restaurants, and there are two retailers in Sydney, and one each in Melbourne, Brisbane and Perth. Whether they will have the Basket Press Shiraz available is another matter; it is as scarce as Henschke Hill of Grace

Barossa Valley legends, Rockford, tend their hand here to producing one of the world's unique wine styles, a sparkling Shiraz. Inspired by a sparkling Burgundy Rocky O'Callaghan found in his father's cellar at Seppelt when he was a child and when working with Colin Preece in Rutherglen, the man who responsible for the grand style.

One of the best sparkling Shiraz I've ever tasted, the August 2017 disgorgement of Rockford's NV Black Shiraz is a beauty. Loaded with chocolate and black cherry notes, it's medium to full-bodied, rich, dark and concentrated, with a long, dusty finish. These wines are ready to drink when released and typically should be consumed over the next 3-4 years. Wine Advocate 94
