Watson Family Classic Shiraz
About this product
Watson Family Classic Shiraz 2018 is a supple, medium-bodied Margaret River red, combining juicy dark fruit with peppery spice and gentle oak. It favours balance and elegance over sheer power, with fine tannins and refreshing acidity giving the wine an approachable, food-friendly character.
Blackberry, blueberry and plum lead the palate, complemented by white pepper and savoury spice. Subtle oak adds depth without overshadowing the fruit, while a smooth texture carries the flavours through a lingering finish. The appeal lies in its combination of generous berry flavour and a restrained, finely structured frame.
Suggested pairings include rosemary-roasted lamb, grilled beef or a hearty mushroom pie. Its savoury spice would also suit Italian sausages with lentils, while the gentle tannins make it a versatile option for a shared roast dinner.
