The 2023 Tellurian Estate EVO Shiraz is a refined Heathcote Shiraz that reflects the depth and structure of the region's famed Cambrian soils. Aromas of blackberry, black cherry and dark plum are layered with notes of violet, cracked black pepper and subtle baking spice, creating a complex yet balanced expression of this classic Australian variety.
On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied with fine-grained tannins, vibrant natural acidity and a smooth, concentrated texture. Ripe black fruit flavours are complemented by hints of liquorice, cocoa and savoury spice, while carefully integrated oak adds depth and complexity without dominating the fruit. The finish is long, dry and persistent, showcasing both power and elegance in equal measure.
Ben's Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, the 2023 Tellurian Estate EVO Shiraz is an outstanding choice for lovers of premium Heathcote Shiraz seeking richness balanced by freshness and finesse. It pairs beautifully with grilled rib-eye steak, slow-roasted lamb shoulder, braised beef cheeks, venison or mature hard cheeses. Enjoy now after decanting, or cellar confidently over the next 8–12 years as it develops additional savoury complexity and layered character.
