Bold, expressive, and deeply rooted in place, the Songlines Estates Basket Pressed McLaren Vale Shiraz 2022 is a powerful and refined red that speaks to the land and legacy from which it is born. Sourced from premium McLaren Vale vineyards with vines aged between 40 to 110 years, each parcel of fruit is handled individually to highlight purity, complexity, and structure—true to the ethos of Songlines.
The wine pours a vibrant purple-black with a crimson red hue and opens with complex aromas of cherry, raspberry, black olive, and violet, all beautifully framed by vanillin spice from French oak. The oak is seamlessly integrated, adding depth without overshadowing the fruit. The palate is luxuriously opulent and potent, offering interwoven layers of plum, blueberry, and cherry, unfolding with velvety generosity, silky tannins, and a long, lingering finish of exceptional polish and power.
A portion of the wine undergoes fermentation in barrel (25%), delivering intense yet soft oak characters. Natural ferments are used where possible, and fermentation temperatures are adjusted in real time to achieve optimal expression—not bound by recipe, but guided by instinct and experience.
This is a wine designed to age gracefully over a decade, though it shows beautifully in its youth when allowed to breathe. The previous vintage was rated 95 Points by Sam Kim (Wine Orbit) and 94 Points & Gold Medal by Wine Showcase Magazine, with international praise such as \"The Latour of McLaren Vale\" by Decanter Magazine. Songlines Estates Shiraz has also been named among the Top 3 Wines in the World.
Enjoy the Songlines Estates Basket Pressed Shiraz 2022 with slow-roasted lamb, Moroccan beef tagine, grilled eggplant with za’atar, or dark chocolate and cherry tart—dishes that match its richness and complexity.
