The 2022 Robert Oatley Signature Series McLaren Vale Shiraz is a vibrant and approachable expression of one of Australia's most celebrated wine regions, McLaren Vale. 

In the glass, it presents a deep ruby hue with enticing aromas of dark berries, plums, and hints of dark chocolate and spice. The palate is fleshy and full-bodied, offering flavors of blueberries and spice, complemented by supple tannins and a stylish French oak influence. The wine's balanced acidity and lingering, juicy finish make it both satisfying and versatile. Critically acclaimed, the 2022 vintage was recognized as a Top Value wine by The Real Review, highlighting its quality and affordability. 

With an alcohol content of 14%, this Shiraz is enjoyable now and has the potential to evolve gracefully over the next decade. It pairs excellently with hearty dishes such as grilled meats, rich stews, or aged cheeses.
