The 2021 Miss Zilm Shiraz Malbec is a rich and expressive red blend crafted in a modern Australian style, combining the bold fruit of Shiraz with the vibrant colour and plush texture of Malbec. The nose is fragrant and inviting, revealing aromas of blackberry, dark plum and black cherry, complemented by notes of violet, cracked black pepper, dark chocolate and subtle spice.
On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied with velvety tannins, balanced natural acidity and a generous, rounded texture, delivering flavours of ripe blackberries, plum and blueberry layered with hints of mocha, liquorice and savoury oak spice. The finish is long, smooth and beautifully balanced, making it an approachable yet complex red that is equally suited to everyday enjoyment and special occasions.
Ben’s Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is a fantastic red blend for customers who enjoy rich, fruit-driven wines with smooth tannins and plenty of depth. Perfect for relaxed dinners, entertaining or sharing with friends. Best enjoyed now after a short decant or cellared over the next 5–8 years. Ideal with grilled steaks, slow-roasted lamb, barbecue ribs, gourmet burgers or aged cheddar and hard cheeses.
