Crimson red in colour, it bursts with aromas of blackberry, black cherry, and ripe plum, lifted by a touch of spice and earthiness. On the palate, this Shiraz is all about juicy fruit – round, lush, and silky with soft tannins that make it wonderfully easy to drink. A whisper of smoky depth and subtle oak add just enough complexity without overshadowing the bright Shiraz fruit. It’s a modern take on an Aussie classic, made to be shared and enjoyed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTop food pairings:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLentil and mushroom stew\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSticky BBQ ribs or pulled jackfruit wraps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNutty Cheddar or Manchego-style cheese\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eKate Says\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“I’m all for a Shiraz that delivers on fruit but doesn’t knock you out – and this one nails it. The free run juice gives it this really lush, silky feel.
