Tasting Notes 🍷

The 2023 Shiraz presents a deep, almost opaque purple hue, signalling its intense character. The nose is brooding, with dark bramble fruits, chocolate, and subtle spice aromas. On the palate, it offers slightly sour, fleshy berry fruit flavours, balanced by firm tannins that provide texture and structure. The finish is long, with lingering bramble fruits and a hint of oak. Decanting this wine will reveal its full complexity, particularly when young.

Food Pairing Suggestions:

• Grilled Lamb: The richness of grilled lamb, especially with rosemary or garlic, pairs perfectly with the Shiraz’s bold fruit and tannin structure.
• Beef Wellington: A luxurious match for this complex wine, highlighting both the richness of the meat and the wine’s depth.
• Spicy Sausages: The Shiraz’s fruit and spice enhance the flavours of spicy sausages, creating a dynamic pairing.
• Hard Cheeses: Mature cheeses like cheddar or Gruyère complement the wine’s tannins and depth.
• Dark Chocolate Desserts: The wine’s dark fruit and chocolate notes make it a perfect match with rich chocolate-based desserts.

Best Serving Temp:

Serve at 16°C – 18°C to bring out the wine’s full character. This temperature allows the Shiraz’s dark fruit and complex structure to shine.
