The Orlando Lawson’s Padthaway Shiraz 2014 is a powerful and beautifully matured single-vineyard Shiraz, produced only in exceptional vintages and showcasing the depth, structure and pedigree that define this iconic Padthaway release.

Sourced from the historic 2.8-hectare “J Block,” the outstanding 2014 season delivered remarkable concentration and balance, resulting in a wine of both intensity and finesse. In the glass, it presents a deep crimson hue with vibrant purple tones, reflecting both its richness and graceful evolution.

The nose is layered and expressive, revealing dark plum, blackberry and liquorice, intertwined with chocolate, spice and charry oak from extended maturation in French and American hogsheads. The palate is full-bodied and structured, delivering brooding dark fruit wrapped in firm yet finely integrated tannins, with a plush, silky texture. Oak and savoury spice add depth and complexity, while the finish is long, powerful and elegantly persistent.

Awarded Double Gold and 96 points at the Melbourne International Wine Competition, along with multiple gold medals and a string of 95-point ratings, this release cements its place among Australia’s most celebrated Shiraz wines.

Drinking beautifully now with decanting, it also offers excellent cellaring potential, continuing to evolve over the next 15–20 years. Perfect with slow-roasted lamb, Wagyu steak, braised beef or rich mushroom dishes, where its depth and structure truly shine. Bold, complex and highly awarded, the Orlando Lawson’s Padthaway Shiraz 2014 is a standout museum release — delivering prestige, longevity and exceptional value in every glass.
