Zilzie 2019 Barossa Valley Premium Shiraz Wine 750ml Bottle

Crafted with Care
Our premium Shiraz-Viognier blend captures the essence of Central Victorian terroir through meticulous winemaking techniques designed for bold flavor and effortless enjoyment. Sourced from our own vineyards and trusted growers across Central Victoria’s diverse landscapes, these grapes undergo co-fermentation—a process where Shiraz skins mingle with Viognier for 5–7 days—to amplify vibrant berry notes while deepening its rich aroma profile. After gentle pressing, the wine matures gracefully in French and American oak barrels for ten months, resulting in silky tannins that harmonize seamlessly with its fruity core.

A Region of Distinction
Victoria’s exceptional geography plays a starring role in this wine’s character. With over 21 subregions shaped by cool mountain foothills and warm plains along its rivers and lakes, each area contributes unique nuances to favored varieties like Shiraz. This dynamic climate fosters layered complexity—perfectly showcased here—where crisp raspberry undertones meet darker mulberry shades before evolving into velvety textures only time in oak can deliver.

Tasting Notes
• Juicy blackberry and cherry flavors burst upfront
• Subtle hints of vanilla oak complement dark chocolate undertones
• Aged spice aromas mingle with earthy leather notes
• Balanced acidity ensures smooth sips every time

Why Choose Our Wine?
Unlike many robust reds that demand aging or pairing expertise, this blend strikes an ideal balance between boldness and accessibility thanks to its Viognier integration—a secret ingredient elevating its fruit-forward charm while softening tannic edges. Ideal for casual evenings or festive gatherings where you crave rich flavors without intimidation—think smoky grilled meats or hearty stews paired effortlessly. As Jonathon Creek notes: “It’s crafted not just for now but for moments you’ll want to revisit.”

From vineyard selection to oak maturation every step prioritizes your sensory experience—ensuring every glass delivers sophistication without pretense.*
