Reschke Bull Trader Shiraz 2022 from Reschke in Coonawarra is a soft, generous, full‑bodied shiraz that dishes up plump dark fruit, chocolate and spice in a smooth, seriously satisfying style. This Bull Trader Shiraz 2022 is inky‑hued with aromas of dark cherries, figs and blackberries, overlaid with thorny stems, turned earth, bitter chocolate and coffee‑ground notes.

On the palate it is lavishly textured and mouth‑filling, dominated by plummy dark fruit and blackberries wrapped in dark cherry, bay leaf and dark chocolate, all nicely balanced by spicy oak. The lengthy palate is concentrated, smooth and rich, showing outstanding depth and intensity for the price while keeping tannins plush rather than punishing, so you can drink it happily now or over the next 5–8 years.

Food‑wise, Reschke Bull Trader Shiraz 2022 is tailor‑made for a steak sandwich, grilled ribeye, lamb chops, BBQ sausages or slow‑cooked beef casseroles. The wine’s dark‑fruit weight, chocolate, coffee and spice notes love protein, fat and char, making it an ideal all‑round winter red and a dead‑set winner at any weekend barbie.
