Established in 1971, Rockford's vintage shed is equipped with plant that is from 50 to 100 years old and was discarded by other wineries as modernisation took over.

Although the wine shows typical varietal and regional characteristics, it also has the Rockford philosophy at its core - a rich, soft and full flavoured wine made using traditional wine making techniques and attitude.

"One of the best sparkling Shiraz I've ever tasted, the 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."
