Blickinstal Black Groben Shiraz Cabernet 2021 from Blickinstal in South Australia is a gutsy, old‑school Aussie red blend, bringing together plush Shiraz and structured Cabernet in a seriously flavoursome, crowd‑pleasing style that overdelivers at the table. This Blickinstal Black Groben Shiraz Cabernet 2021 follows the Black Gröben tradition of power, richness and generous South Australian fruit.

In the glass, expect lifted blackberries, blueberries and cassis wrapped in cinnamon, clove and dark chocolate, with hints of vanilla and subtle oak. Deep, rich, velvety tannins flood the palate, carrying ripe black fruits and dark chocolate through a long, warming finish that still keeps a nice line of freshness, making it both comforting now and capable of short‑term cellaring.

On the table, this 2021 Shiraz Cabernet is a natural fit with grilled rib‑eye, slow‑roasted lamb shoulder, beef and Guinness pie or a rich BBQ spread, where its fruit weight and spice can stand up to big flavours. It will also work beautifully alongside hard cheeses, charcuterie and hearty pasta ragù, making it a brilliant option for winter dinners, Sunday roasts or sharing with mates around the fire.
