Seppelt Wines Stakes Day, Melbourne Cup Carnival
Nov 14, 2018
Few Australian wineries have carved such a distinguished name for both still and sparkling wines. Not only a pioneer of sparkling wine in Australian in the 1890s – both white and red expressions – Seppelt also crafts some of the country’s most collected table wines and helped pave the way for cool climate styles in Australia.
In May 2018, Seppelt released its most sought-after wines in unison, as one tier, titled The Seppelt Luxury Collection. A showcase of the celebrated styles and excellence Seppelt is renowned for, The Seppelt Luxury Collection’s inaugural release on the 24th of May was followed up in August 2018 when Seppelt was announced as a Major Partner of the Victoria Racing Club (VRC) and Melbourne Cup Carnival, which includes naming rights for the final day of racing – Seppelt Wines Stakes Day. Celebrating a 40-year anniversary between Seppelt and the VRC, this partnership will see Seppelt activate across the Carnival with the Seppelt Marquee in the Birdcage enclosure and the Seppelt Bar in The Park precinct.
The partnership between Seppelt and the VRC further cements Seppelt’s positioning as one Australia’s most iconic and respected wine makers and in celebration of this exciting partnership, Seppelt will debut an exclusive preview of the anticipated 2008 Show Sparkling Shiraz within the Seppelt Marquee. Made only in exceptional years and crafted from the finest Victorian Shiraz, Seppelt Show Sparkling Shiraz is a wine that has achieved iconic status and countless accolades, setting a global benchmark for Sparkling Shiraz.
While the much anticipated Seppelt Show Sparkling Shiraz 2008 will debut at Flemington, The Seppelt Luxury Collection 2018, featuring icons of Australian wine, is available now nationally and is the perfect addition to any personal or commercial wine collection.
