Curioture 2021 Shiraz Clare Valley, Australia

Description

We present another enticing release from the wine geeks at Curioture. Rich dark fruit flavors and spice make this a delectable example of classic Aussie Shiraz. In the heart of South Australia, the highly prized Clare Valley offers ideal conditions for cultivating hardy Shiraz grapes. Though it’s located just inland from the Indian Ocean, this small region is naturally protected by the Mount Lofty Range. This means vines enjoy a warm Mediterranean climate and a long growing season. The area’s complex limestone soils and extreme temperature swings between day and night create a balance of bold dark fruit flavor and fresh textures. This rich wine encourages you to lean into the Australian spirit with food pairings. Serve it alongside slow-roasted lamb with native herbs like rosemary and thyme or a juicy grass-fed beef burger with grilled onions and tomato relish.
