Tasting Notes
The Phaedrus Shiraz 2023 opens with an inviting deep crimson hue and a generous, expressive bouquet. On the nose, ripe blackberry and dark plum lead the charge, layered with fragrant violet and a whisper of cracked black pepper — a hallmark of cool-influenced Australian Shiraz. The palate is plush and well-structured, delivering waves of dark cherry compote, blueberry, and mocha, underpinned by subtle cedar and a touch of smoked meat. Tannins are fine-grained and supple, with balanced acidity that keeps the wine lively and food-friendly. The finish is long and warming, with lingering spice and a dusting of dark chocolate.
