Trofeo Estate Amphora Shiraz 2021 from Trofeo Estate on the Mornington Peninsula is a vibrant, cool‑climate shiraz that feels immediately enticing in the glass, its deep magenta colour hinting at generous, succulent fruit and classy, amphora‑driven purity. This Trofeo Estate Amphora Shiraz 2021 is vegan‑friendly and pitched at a refined 13.5% alcohol.​

Aromatically, you’re looking at dark fruit, liquorice and vibrant spice, opening into tart blackberry, winter spice and a touch of cedar that keeps things savoury rather than sweet. The palate is juicy and structured, with beautifully framed tannins and a long, moreish, savoury finish that makes you want another glass.

On the table, this will sing with char‑grilled lamb chops, peppered kangaroo fillet, wood‑fired pizza with spicy salami, or a rich mushroom ragù over polenta. It’s also a smart match for aged cheddar or a hard sheep’s cheese, and has the stuffing to cellar for a few years if you like building a small collection.
