Review Detail
2008 Banks Thargo Sparkling Merlot
Wine Rating
86
A visually appealing red hue in the glass, the nose is a real surprise with briney raspberry fruit (yes brine!)
The palate has confected ripe red fruits and a slight savoury aspect on the finish.
An interesting wine , but will polarize drinkers even more than most sparkling reds.
