Description
Clonakilla O’Riada Shiraz Canberra 2023 is a bright, cool-climate red with spice, lift, and charm. From the first pour, it feels silky and fresh. Unlike heavier Shiraz wines, it leans into red fruit and floral notes. As a result, it feels polished, lively, and easy to enjoy.On the nose, red cherry, raspberry, and rose petal lead the way. Then, hints of white pepper, dried herbs, and sweet tobacco add more detail. Together, these aromas feel vivid and inviting. Even so, the wine stays focused, which gives it a refined first impression.On the palate, this Shiraz is medium-bodied, smooth, and full of energy. Bright red fruit comes first, while fine tannins give the wine shape. Meanwhile, fresh acidity keeps each sip lively and clean.

It offers a more accessible expression of Canberra Shiraz while still showing the region’s cool-climate character. Therefore, it feels distinctive without feeling difficult.This is a red wine made for the table. It pairs well with grilled steak, pork roast, beef Wellington, and savory dishes with herbs or pepper.
