Campbells Bobbie Burns Shiraz 2022 from Rutherglen is a proper old‑school Aussie shiraz, oozing blackberries, blackcurrant and dark plum with liquorice, mocha and warm spice wrapped in a gentle, toasty oak frame that feels generous but nicely put together. This 2022 Bobbie Burns Shiraz is full‑bodied and mouth‑filling, with loads of dark fruit, chocolatey richness and fine, grippy tannins driving a long, savoury finish that’s already drawing mid‑90s scores for its balance and sheer drinkability.

On the table it’s spot‑on with rib‑eye, lamb chops, beef cheeks or a slow‑cooked stew, and it absolutely sings with snags off the barbie or a mushroom and lentil pie when you want something gutsy in the glass. A wedge of aged cheddar or vintage gouda also works a treat, especially as the last glass of the night.

Campbells Bobbie Burns Shiraz 2022 has the structure to cellar comfortably for 8–12 years, but it already drinks brilliantly after a good splash in a decanter, delivering rich Rutherglen fruit, honest country charm and serious value for anyone who loves big, flavoursome shiraz without the luxury price tag.
