Primo Estate's Joseph Sparkling Red is the quintesential Australian wine. A unique style that calls South Australia home, Joe Grilli has catapulted himself to very top of the esteemed pile with this rich, velvety and ultra smooth wine. A perfect addition the Christmas table, yet perfectly at home in almost all situations, Joseph Sparkling Red is a must have for any true Australian wine lover.

This wine is acclaimed as one of Australia’s finest Cabernets since Joe Grilli of Primo Estate released the first vintage in 1987. To create the JOSEPH Moda, Joe combines Aussie know-how with his traditional Italian winemaking by air drying the finest McLaren Vale fruit on shaded outdoor racks for two weeks prior to crushing. The fruit is concentrated so that it loses around 15% of its weight. This inspired use of the Italian Amarone technique creates an opulent, brooding wine. All fruit is hand harvested and sorted from Primo Estate's dry grown vineyards in McLaren Vale and Clarendon. The wine is aged in new French and American oak barriques for 20 months to create a subtle layering - mocha, cinnamon, vanilla and cedar streaks ripple through the palate; the considerable tannins are saturated by the sheer lushness of flavour.
