Clonakilla O'Riada Shiraz 2024 750ml

Product Info

From one of Australia's most celebrated cool-climate producers, Clonakilla O'Riada Shiraz 2024 offers a beautifully refined expression of Shiraz from the Canberra District. Named in honor of the Irish composer Seán Ó Riada, this wine reflects the elegance, aromatic complexity, and distinctive character that have made Clonakilla a benchmark for Australian Shiraz.

Fragrant aromas of blackberry, dark cherry, violet, and cracked black pepper unfold alongside subtle notes of spice, dried herbs, and savory earth. The palate is medium-bodied yet wonderfully concentrated, with silky tannins, vibrant acidity, and layers of dark fruit, pepper, and delicate floral nuances. A long, finely textured finish underscores the wine's balance and sophistication.

More Rhône-inspired than the powerful, richly extracted Shiraz often associated with Australia, O'Riada combines generosity of fruit with remarkable freshness and finesse. Approachable in its youth with some aeration, it also possesses the structure to develop beautifully over the coming years.

An outstanding introduction to Clonakilla's distinctive style and a compelling choice for lovers of elegant, cool-climate Syrah.
