It has evolved with us, and our culture, and is now woven so deeply into the fabric of our food and wine scene that it would be almost impossible to unravel. The joy of this grape is that it can display restraint and exuberance simultaneously. It is happy on our dinner table, playing a supporting role to the main meal, yet it will hold its own if enjoyed unaccompanied. A jack of all trades, a real Aussie.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe richly flavoured 2023 Shiraz really takes you on a journey. Upon opening, this wine transports you to a warm summer afternoon.
