2023 Wangolina Shiraz Cabernet

The 2023 Wangolina Shiraz Cabernet is a classic Australian red blend from South Australia's Limestone Coast, combining the generous fruit of Shiraz with the structure and depth of Cabernet Sauvignon. Crafted in a smooth, approachable style, it offers vibrant fruit and subtle spice, making it an excellent choice for everyday enjoyment. The nose reveals aromas of blackberry, blackcurrant and ripe plum, complemented by hints of black pepper, cedar and gentle oak spice.

On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied with soft, rounded tannins and bright natural acidity. Layers of juicy blackberry, dark cherry and cassis are balanced by savoury spice and subtle chocolate notes, leading to a smooth, lingering finish with excellent balance and drinkability. Ready to enjoy now, it will continue to drink well over the next 4–6 years.

Ben's Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a great choice for those who enjoy a classic Australian red with rich fruit and an easy-drinking style. Pair it with grilled steaks, roast lamb, beef burgers, slow-cooked casseroles or mature cheddar. Decant for 20–30 minutes before serving to bring out its vibrant fruit and savoury complexity.
