Hesketh Midday Somewhere Shiraz 2024 14% 750ml
A medium-bodied, cool-climate Shiraz from Hesketh’s Limestone Coast program in South Australia. Crafted from fruit grown in subregions like Coonawarra, Wrattonbully, and Tatiara, this wine is gently matured in seasoned French oak to enhance varietal purity and bright spice expression.
TASTING NOTES
COLOR
Deep ruby-purple core with bright red-purple hues.
NOSE
Aromatic profile featuring dark fruits (blackcurrant, dark cherry), red berries (raspberry, strawberry), hints of chocolate, spice, floral notes like violet, plus touches of sage, tobacco, mint, and coffee.
TASTE
Juicy and elegant, this Shiraz brings forward vibrant red and dark fruit flavors balanced by smooth, creamy mouthfeel. Expect spice tones, fine acidity, soft but firm tannins, and savory undertones—tobacco, earthy spice, a hint of liquorice—finishing with steadfast structure and good length.
FOOD PAIRING
Great with rich, savory dishes that complement its fruity depth and spice:
Roast lamb or lamb ragu (pappardelle).
Char-grilled or barbecued beef (steak, T‑bone).
Venison, beef stew, hearty braises.
Smoky or cured meats (pork, bacon).
Mature cheeses, especially Gouda or aged cheddar.
Hearty fare: Moroccan pastilla, peppered sausages.
