Soft, supple, and dangerously moreish, The Listening Station Shiraz is a bright and aromatic red from Victoria. With silky fruit, gentle spice, and a savoury edge, this is Shiraz at its most approachable – smooth, elegant, and irresistibly drinkable. Meet the producer Boutinot Australia’s Listening Station range is quintessentially Australian – approachable, full of character, and consistently great quality. These wines are crafted from carefully selected vineyard sites, delivering styles that are both versatile and hugely appealing. Production Sourced from old Victorian soils, this Shiraz captures the region’s finesse, purity, and signature eucalypt character. Grapes were harvested at night to preserve freshness and crushed within the hour before fermentation in temperature-controlled tanks at 22–25°C. Pump-overs were used to extract colour and flavour without harsh tannins. Around 20% of the final blend was matured in barrel, adding texture and depth to the finished wine. Tasting notes Bright, juicy, and aromatic with red fruits, white pepper, and a hint of smoky bacon fat. Supple on the palate with fine, silky tannins and vibrant fruit – this is the most elegant and drinkable Shiraz in the range to date. Food match Ideal with Moroccan lamb tagine, roast vegetables, or a selection of hard cheeses. Grape Shiraz 100%
