Jen Pfeiffer The Diamond Shiraz 2018
About the wine
Ravishing, barrel-aged Australian red steeped in lush, refined flavor
- Full of ripe red and dark berries, a hint of oak and a touch of tempting spiciness, this rich, sultry red is what Jen calls “the ultimate expression of what I love about Shiraz."
- Angel funding got Jen into a handful of the best vineyards in her corner of South Australia, each with older vines and lower yields that gave their fruit the perfect intensity Jen wanted for this wine.
- Jen says it best: “My Diamond Shiraz is made from only the very best blocks, from my favorite vineyards, made with all the love and care in the world. It's this commitment to quality at every step that makes my Diamond Shiraz fantastic value. Don't you just love nakedwines.com?!”
Best before
My Diamond Shiraz is a superb drink now, but will certainly delight if matured for ten years until 2028.
Serving advice
My Diamond Shiraz really does benefit from some time to breathe. I recommend opening it (and decanting if possible) around 2 hours prior to serving. My ideal serving temperature for this wine is 57-62°F.
Food match
I love my Diamond Shiraz with a spicy, tomato and vegetable pasta sauce - gets me every time! It's also fabulous with eye fillet steak, rubbed with paprika, pepper and salt, and served with twice cooked chips and a side salad.
Contains sulphites
