Natalie's Score: 88/100

From McLaren Vale, South Australia Paxton Shiraz is a juicy, meaty Shiraz at a great price point. Robust with fleshy blackberry, dark cherry liqueur, blood orange and earthy, spicy flavours on the palate. Tannins are firm on this full-bodied red made for the BBQ. Decant for two hours and pair with grilled BBQ fare.

Shiraz food pairings: slow-cooked beef ragĂș, mutton with mint and coriander, espresso and cocoa-rubbed flank steak, black bean soup.

A great Shiraz at a great price point. Lots of ripe blackberry, blueberry jam and meaty flavours on this robust red finishing with savoury herbs, dark spices and dark chocolate flavours on the palate. Tannins are firm. Enjoy now and for the next five years. Pair with a grilled New York striploin steak. - Community Wine Reviews

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
