Nashdale Lane Wines Colour Series Shiraz 2022 from Orange, NSW is a deeply coloured, cool‑climate Shiraz that marries dark, brooding fruit with a confident yet polished structure – the sort of red that feels equally at home by the glass or alongside a hearty feed. Grown around 750 metres on basalt soils and hand‑picked at dawn, it shows all the vibrancy and finesse you’d expect from high‑altitude Shiraz.

On the palate, Nashdale Lane Wines Colour Series Shiraz 2022 sits medium to full‑bodied with rich dark red fruits, distinctive white pepper and earthy tannins shaping a savoury, food‑friendly frame. A spell in French oak puncheons adds subtle spice and depth, while fine acids and that velvet finish keep it from feeling heavy or overly sweet, giving you a generous yet balanced cool‑climate expression.

Food‑wise, this Colour Series Shiraz is a cracking match for beef, lamb and mushroom‑based dishes – think classic steak nights, slow‑cooked lamb shanks or rich mushroom stews. Thanks to its cooler‑climate brightness and savoury edge, it also handles fresher elements like herbs and tomato, making it versatile across everything from winter comfort food to more modern, lighter plates.
