Devitt & Moore William Pile Shiraz 2022 from Devitt & Moore is a full‑throttle, old‑vine Barossa Shiraz that blends Barossa depth with Eden Valley lift for a powerful yet polished flagship red. This William Pile Shiraz 2022 shows inky dark maroon colour and aromas of blackberry, black/blueberry, plum and mulberry, layered with violet, coffee grinds, liquorice, soy, toasty oak and mixed spice.

The palate is full‑bodied, plush and structured, delivering concentrated black cherry, dark plum compote and richer dark chocolate wrapped around fine‑grained, firm tannins. There is a savoury edge, vibrant acidity and a long, vigorous finish, with the fruit, oak and tannin in beautiful sync and clear potential to evolve gracefully over the next decade or more. With 96 points and 5 Stars from Wine Orbit plus other mid‑90s scores, it firmly sits in the top tier of modern Barossa Shiraz.

Food‑wise, Devitt & Moore William Pile Shiraz 2022 is tailor‑made for rich, slow‑cooked or char‑grilled dishes – think slow‑roasted lamb shoulder, chargrilled rib‑eye, beef bourguignon or mushroom and truffle risotto. The wine’s dense black‑fruit core, dark chocolate, spice and savoury tannin structure love protein, fat and umami, making it a superb choice for celebratory dinners or any night you want a serious Barossa red as the star of the table.
