Tahbilk Shiraz · Nagambie Lakes, Victoria · 2017

The Moment

A beautifully mature expression of Australian Shiraz that leans elegant rather than heavy. This is the bottle for those who love savory reds with depth, but don’t want the weight of a blockbuster.

Balanced, expressive, and quietly complex — a reminder that great Shiraz doesn’t need to shout.

Tasting Profile

Aromas
Black cherry, plum, and licorice lead the way, layered with cedar, black olive, cracked pepper, and subtle eucalyptus. A gentle smoky note adds depth without overpowering the fruit.

Palate
Medium-bodied and smooth with a lively freshness. Dark berries and plum sit at the center, supported by savory spice and a touch of earth from thoughtful oak aging.

Structure & Finish
Fine, dusty tannins provide structure while keeping the wine approachable. The finish is smooth, lightly spiced, and quietly persistent — savory more than sweet.
