Izway Don Shiraz 2015

Description

Product Description: Barossa Shiraz with brightness and bite—no thunder needed. Izway’s 2015 Don Shiraz is a fresh, finely structured take on a Barossa classic. Sourced from carefully selected parcels and shaped by a growing season that included a dramatic January rain, this vintage delivers purity, lift, and surprising finesse. While the Barossa often leans into power, this wine steers toward restraint and aromatic complexity without losing its regional heartbeat. Expect a wine that’s clean and expressive from the outset—bright red fruits, subtle spice, and a textural play that nods almost playfully to Viognier (though none is present). At 15.4% ABV, it wears its weight with ease thanks to natural acidity and an elegant tannin frame. Basket-pressed, naturally fermented, and made with minimal intervention at Izway’s off-grid Seppeltsfield winery, the 2015 Don is Barossa authenticity bottled. Best enjoyed with chargrilled lamb, wood-fired eggplant, or a slow-braised beef ragu. Drink now or cellar for 6–10 years. Tasting Notes NOSE – Bright and lifted Strawberry, raspberry, cassis and cream—lightning before the thunder. PALATE – Sleek and textural Hints of apricot and ripe red fruit with a soft, sweet tannin structure and deceptive richness. FINISH – Clean and balanced Long and bright with a savoury taper, carried by acidity rather than sheer power.
