Standish The Relic Shiraz 750ml 2022

Standish The Relic Shiraz (2022) is a limited-release, cellar-worthy Australian red built for longevity. It delivers a dense core of dark fruit supported by mounting spice, with refined tannins and integrated oak that reward time in the bottle. A powerful yet balanced wine, it pairs brilliantly with roasted game, lamb, and aged cheeses, and will evolve gracefully over a decade or more. Tasting notes Appearance: Deep, opaque ruby with a bright edge. Nose: Blackberry, dark plum, and cassis layered with black pepper, licorice, cocoa, and subtle espresso. Palate: Full-bodied, velvety texture; flavors of dark fruit, dark chocolate, and espresso alongside spice and graphite notes; firm, finely grained tannins; balanced acidity. Finish: Long, persistent finish with continued fruit, spice, and oak integration.
