Dark ruby red with a bright magenta hue. Vibrant and lifted, reflecting its cool-climate origin.

Fragrant and expressive, showing red and dark berries—raspberry, blackberry and blueberry.
Hints of violet, crushed herbs and white pepper spice add a lifted, aromatic complexity typical of Orange Shiraz.
👅 Palate
Medium-bodied and juicy, delivering bright berry fruits with a cool-climate freshness.
Spice and pepper notes carry through the palate, supported by subtle savoury elements and balanced oak.
🍈 Texture & Finish
Fine, grippy tannins provide structure without heaviness.
The finish is long, fresh and savoury, with lingering spice, red fruits and a clean, mouth-watering acidity.
🍇 Overall Style
A modern Orange Shiraz—fresh, spicy and medium-bodied.
Focused on balance and drinkability, with cool-climate elegance rather than heavy richness.
🍽️ Food Pairing
Perfect with lamb, slow-cooked meats, charcuterie or rich cheeses. Also great with barbecue and hearty seasonal dishes.
🥂 BBD Verdict
A seriously impressive cool-climate Shiraz that overdelivers for its price point.
Perfect for mixed dozens where you want freshness, spice and versatility—an ideal crowd-pleaser that still shows real regional character.
