Soldier's Block - Shiraz - Victoria

This 2021 Shiraz wine hails from the Victoria region in South Australia. Its name pays tribute to the 'Returned Soldiers Settlement Act' of 1915, which granted Australian soldiers land parcels often used for vineyard planting. Many of these vineyard plots are still in use today. Crafted from nearly 100% Shiraz with a hint of Malbec, it offers a bright, aromatic medium - full body. You'll taste dark bramble fruits like black currant and cranberry, along with spices. It's an excellent match for Moroccan lamb tagine or roasted vegetables.

To enjoy this wine, just pop the cork and pour it into a wine glass. Let it breathe for a few minutes to enhance its aroma. You can drink it at room temperature, but a slight chill in the fridge for about 15 - 20 minutes can make it even more refreshing. As for food pairings, as mentioned, it goes great with Moroccan lamb tagine or roasted veggies. When storing, keep it in a cool, dark place. Avoid keeping it in direct sunlight or in a place with extreme temperature changes. This will help maintain its flavor and quality over time.
