The 2025 Wirra Wirra Catapult Shiraz is a vibrant McLaren Vale Shiraz that showcases the region's generous fruit while retaining freshness and balance. Crafted by Wirra Wirra, this wine opens with expressive aromas of blackberry, dark plum and black cherry, complemented by hints of black pepper, liquorice and subtle oak spice.
On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied with fine, supple tannins and bright natural acidity. Flavours of ripe black fruits, blueberry and plum are layered with gentle spice and savoury notes, creating a smooth, well-structured wine with a long, balanced finish. Careful oak maturation adds texture without overshadowing the purity of the fruit.
Ben's Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent McLaren Vale Shiraz for those who enjoy rich, fruit-driven reds with elegance and versatility. Best enjoyed over the next 5–8 years. Pair with grilled rib-eye steak, roast lamb, slow-cooked beef, barbecue favourites or aged cheddar.
