The St Hallett Butcher’s Cart Shiraz 2023 is a beautifully crafted wine sourced from the northern Barossa Valley and the higher altitude of Eden Valley, resulting in a rich, generous Shiraz with a complex, layered character. The blend is made up of 63.9% Barossa Valley fruit and 35.9% Eden Valley fruit, providing a perfect balance of richness and vibrancy. The Barossa fruit contributes dark berry flavours and spicy notes, while the Eden Valley fruit imparts bright mineral nuances and lifts the overall palate.

Crafted with minimal intervention and a focus on quality, each vineyard lot was vinified separately to ensure the best expression of terroir. The wine was aged in a combination of new American and French oak, along with older American oak, for 10 months, allowing the wine to develop a perfect balance of oak influence and fruit character. The result is a wine bursting with black cherry, raspberry, and tilled earth, complemented by vanilla, nutmeg, and delicate milk chocolate notes. The palate opens with ripe blackberry and plum, followed by a medley of exotic spices and a long, persistent finish, supported by dense, textured tannins that provide excellent structure.

This bold and full-bodied Shiraz is the ideal partner for a hearty scotch fillet with charred greens, allowing the richness of the wine to shine through alongside savoury flavours.
