2023 Lizard Drinking Shiraz (rPET Bottle)

Tasting Notes: Colour | Inky purple-black at the core, bright violet hue Bouquet | Blueberry pie, juicy black plum, dark chocolate, smoky bacon and sweet vanilla-oak, with a lift of cracked black pepper and mocha Palate | Full, plush and round, floods the mouth with ripe blueberry and plum, wrapped in toasty vanillin oak and cocoa; velvety tannins and gentle warmth carry it to a long, smoky, peppery finish that feels comforting rather than heavy Pairs well with: Meat | Barbecued beef short ribs with sticky glaze with crunchy slaw Seafood | Grilled prawns with garlic butter and smoked paprika (yes, it works!) Vegetarian | Charred eggplant steaks with miso-maple glaze and sesame Vegan | Lentil-mushroom shepherd’s pie with truffle oil Cheese | Vintage sharp cheddar with fruit chutney, sliced pink lady apple and a handful of roasted walnuts Alcohol | 13.5% Volume | 750mL
