The 2022 Laneway Shiraz by McPherson Wines is a vibrant and approachable Australian red sourced primarily from Central Victoria. Crafted to capture a modern, fruit-driven style, it opens with rich aromas of ripe blackberry, dark cherry, and juicy plum, overlaid with subtle hints of mixed spice and cracked black pepper.
On the palate, it delivers a medium-to-full body with a supple, rounded texture. Well-integrated French oak aging lends gentle notes of subtle cocoa and toasted warmth without overpowering the bright fruit. Smooth, approachable tannins and balanced acidity give the wine a clean, savoury finish.
Easy-drinking yet full of character, it makes a fantastic match for casual gatherings, pairing particularly well with char-grilled steaks, hearty barbecue dishes, or rich tomato-based pasta like spaghetti bolognese.
