If there is a Barossa wine that offers consistently better shirazamataz at a sensible price than this one then I have yet to meet it. This ticks a whole lot of quality and price boxes year after year and the new-release 2020 vintage lives up to the Schild family's high standards. I was about to recommend the excellent 2022 Eden Valley Riesling from the same producer - also excellent - but this one just out-shone it with its classic dark fruit, impressive length and hints of pepper. It is big and bold, sure, but also impressively balanced. Pair with anything from a gourmet burger to a lamb casserole. $26 - but look out for it on special. www.schildestate.com.au/
