Wolf Blass Bilyara Shiraz
The Wolf Blass Bilyara Shiraz is a vibrant and quintessential Australian red, designed for immediate enjoyment and broad appeal. Named for Wolf Blass's original winery site—Bilyara, the Aboriginal word for 'eaglehawk'—this wine embodies the brand's commitment to bold, fruit-driven, and consistently excellent quality. It pours a medium to deep ruby red, offering a perfectly structured and approachable introduction to the classic South Eastern Australian Shiraz style. It's a reliable, crowd-pleasing red that performs equally well at a casual weeknight dinner or a weekend barbecue.
On the nose, the Shiraz is wonderfully lifted and generous, exploding with classic blackcurrants and dark cherries, complemented by notes of rich spice and a subtle hint of vanillin oak. The palate is soft, juicy, and immediately satisfying, delivering a core of lush red berry and plum fruit flavors. It is a medium-bodied wine with a smooth, velvety texture. Gentle tannins provide structure, leading into a generous, soft finish that is supported by that subtle, chocolatey richness from the brief oak contact.
