St Hallett Blackwell Shiraz 2022 from the Barossa Valley is a powerful, old‑vine style shiraz – deep crimson in the glass with that classic Blackwell intensity, all black fruits, dark spice and plush oak, built to show off both now and in the cellar.

The nose is loaded with blackberry, blood plum and black cherry, layered with cocoa, dark chocolate, nutmeg, vanilla bean and a touch of campfire spice. The palate is full‑bodied and concentrated, with waves of black plum, blackberry and mulberry wrapped in dark chocolate, coffee, baking spice and savoury, dense tannins that carry through to a long, warming finish.

St Hallett Blackwell Shiraz 2022 is a natural match for char‑grilled ribeye, slow‑roasted lamb shoulder, rich beef cheek, or a barbie stacked with snags and lamb chops. It will also handle hard, mature cheddar or aged gouda with ease, and has the structure to evolve gracefully for a decade or more.
