The 2022 Shiraz is a vibrant fuchsia in the glass and leads with raspberry pip, pomegranate and red jelly snakes, with pink peppercorns coming in later. The gorgeous tannins are chalky and fine in the mouth; they give a little chew and a little shape. All in all, this is a downright pleasure to drink. It's supple and lovely. Think of like a robust Beaujolais, slinky and good but with shape and form! Drink it before the fruit starts to develop, because the freshness is so compelling. This was tasted blind as part of the "Value for Money" tasting in September 2023. RRP $30 AUD.

The 2021 Shiraz is from a biodynamically managed vineyard in Yallingup (north of Margaret River, south of Dunsborough) that was planted in 1998. This is a routinely satisfying, spicy little wine that is possessed of a pure core of fruit and spicy, supple tannins. This vintage is all of that. 2021 was cooler than 2020, and while the Windance Shiraz performed exceptionally well in 2020, this poised iteration of the wine is very favorable indeed. 14% alcohol, sealed under screw cap.
