Graham Norton's Own Shiraz 2020 (Australia)

Description

Cherry, Oak, Spice

"Upfront and fruit-expressive, the beautifully fragrant bouquet shows dark berry, vanillin oak, mixed spice and cocoa aromas. It's succulent and plump in the mouth, delivering excellent weight and fleshy texture, finishing flavoursome and delectable. At its best: now to 2028" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Aug 2024

This off-dry 2020 South Australian Shiraz is a vibrant and fruit-forward wine that boasts aromas of juicy red berries, raspberry, and black cherry. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied with a silky texture, displaying flavours of ripe red fruit and a hint of chocolate. The wine has a pleasant balance of acidity with an easy-to-drink finish.

Founded by two Kiwi school friends Tim Lightbourne and Rob Cameron back in 2008, Invivo is one of New Zealand’s leading wine producers. A cheeky phone call from Tim and Rob in 2011 led to TV talk show host Graham Norton not only putting his name to a range of wines made with Invivo, but personally blending them and owning shares in the winery! The collaboration quickly expanded and now includes a range of seven wines and four spirits. This year Graham Norton and Invivo are celebrating ten years of partnership, having sold over 20 million bottles of wine together over the years. With more than 300 accolades awarded globally, it’s no surprise the brand has been such a phenomenal success across the world.

Food Pairing: Overall, a delightful and approachable Shiraz that pairs well with a variety of dishes, from grilled meats to pasta.
