Charge into this Coonawarra beast...

A Coonawarra Bull in a wine shop. A tremendous Shiraz ready to charge

"The first thing that strikes is the deep, dark, opaque colour. This is a soft and generous, more full-bodied Shiraz showing lavish texture and plump fruit characters. It’s dominated by a mix of plummy, blackberry and slightly liqueur cherry notes. The spicy integration of oak sits comfortably with the fine chalky tannins, displaying good depth and fruit concentration, with a vibrant lingering finish. Excellent wine for drinking in the next few years.” Ray Jordon 92/100"

Reschke Bull Trader Shiraz 2022 from Reschke in Coonawarra is a soft, generous, full‑bodied shiraz that dishes up plump dark fruit, chocolate and spice in a smooth, seriously satisfying style. This Bull Trader Shiraz 2022 is inky‑hued with aromas of dark cherries, figs and blackberries, overlaid with thorny stems, turned earth, bitter chocolate and coffee‑ground notes.

On the palate it is lavishly textured and mouth‑filling, dominated by plummy dark fruit and blackberries wrapped in dark cherry, bay leaf and dark chocolate, all nicely balanced by spicy oak. The lengthy palate is concentrated, smooth and rich, showing outstanding depth and intensity for the price while keeping tannins plush rather than punishing, so you can drink it happily now or over the next 5–8 years.
