Tahbilk Shiraz is a robust Australian red from Victoria’s Nagambie Lakes, built on historic old-vine Shiraz (vines planted in the 1860s). It presents a deep, dark fruit core with spice and integrated oak, supported by firm yet refined tannins. Well-balanced and persistent, it shows true aging potential and pairs well with grilled meats, roasts, and hearty cheeses.
