From the reliable Langhorne Creek region comes this Shiraz with lift and swagger. It starts with a nose full of dark berries and warming spice, then rolls into a palate of ripe plum, blueberry and creamy vanilla. The seasoned American oak adds that little bit of structure and polish, while soft tannins wrap everything up like a cosy jumper on a chilly night.
It’s a bold red that knows how to make an entrance but doesn’t overstay its welcome—great right now, but if you’re the patient type, it’ll get even better with a bit of time. Pair it with roast lamb, hearty shepherd’s pie, or just a night where your only plan is to savour something solid.
