Gallagher Reserve Shiraz 2018 - Canberra Region

A beautifully matured expression of cool‑climate Shiraz from one of the Canberra region’s most respected family‑run producers. The 2018 vintage shows Gallagher’s signature balance of purity, elegance and generosity, now hitting its stride with bottle age.

Tasting Profile

• Colour Deep garnet with a soft brick hue developing at the rim, reflecting graceful ageing.

• Nose Aromas of black cherry, dark plum and blackberry, layered with pepper spice, aniseed, and subtle French oak warmth. Secondary notes of leather and dried herbs begin to emerge with time in the glass.

• Palate Silky, full and beautifully integrated. Ripe cherry and plum fruit glide across the palate, supported by velvet tannins and refined acidity. The 2018 vintage now shows added depth—dark chocolate, savoury spice and a long, clean, gently warming finish.

Food Pairing

Perfect with:

• Slow‑roasted lamb shoulder

• Mediterranean tomato‑based dishes

• Chargrilled meats and hearty winter fare
