Enchanted Tree Shiraz 2021

Enchanted Tree Shiraz is a generous South Australian red from Quarisa Wines, made entirely from Shiraz and firmly in the rich, crowd-pleasing camp. Ripe blackberry, cassis and dark berry fruit lead the way, joined by vanilla, gentle spice and well-integrated oak. The palate is full-bodied but smooth, with plenty of fruit weight and a long, easy finish rather than aggressive tannin. It is a handy choice when you want classic Australian Shiraz without too much ceremony. Pour it alongside roast lamb, steak from the barbecue or a good mature cheddar.

What the winery says:

Quarisa describes the wine as deep cherry red with purple hues, showing intense fresh berry fruit alongside vanilla, spice and well-integrated vanillin oak. The palate is full-bodied, with dense ripe cassis flavours, balanced oak and a long, smooth finish. The winery suggests roast rack of lamb or mature hard cheeses, and notes that the wine has the structure and balance for further cellaring.
