St Hallett Butcher's Cart Shiraz 2021 (1x75cl)

The Barossa Valley is the warm South Australian region that put Australian Shiraz on the map, and Butcher's Cart is St Hallett's cuvée name on this label. If you want the classic, generous Australian red rather than something lean and cool-climate, this is the address.

Barossa Shiraz is usually full-bodied and ripe, which makes it the obvious bottle to open next to barbecue, roast pork, char siu, or a slow-cooked beef brisket. Easy to bring to a group dinner too — it is a style most people at the table already know they like, so it rarely needs explaining.

Tasting notes

Barossa Shiraz typically shows ripe dark fruit such as plum and blackberry, with sweet spice and a full, warming body.
