South Australia
Story: Shiraz is synonymous with Australia and is grown in most regions from the warmest regions where it produces full-bodied, ripe and plummy wines, to cool regions where a spicy, peppery, medium-bodied wine is the result.
Vintage: 2022 Higher than average rainfall over winter followed by a warm and dry spring resulting in even budburst and a textbook start for the vintage. A cool but relatively dry summer gave us beautiful even ripening conditions. This slow ripening allows great flavour development and retention of natural acidity.
Nose: The 2022 Shiraz entices with aromas of blackberry, dark plum and hints of coffee, promising a rich and flavourful experience.
Palate: On the palate, it draws you in with a medley of dark berries, cherry, and hints of chocolate, adding layers of complexity to this robust Shiraz.
Food Pairings: This bold Shiraz pairs beautifully with a slow-roasted rack of lamb served with a blackberry and coffee-infused jus. The wine's rich fruit flavours and hints of tobacco and coffee complement the savory, tender lamb, while the blackberry jus adds a touch of sweetness and depth to the dish, creating a memorable dining experience.
