The Scheiblhofer The Shiraz 2023 is a powerful yet subtly nuanced Austrian quality red wine that offers a Burgenland interpretation of the international Shiraz grape variety. Produced by the renowned Scheiblhofer winery, this wine epitomises uncompromising quality, concentration and depth. The grapes come from selected vineyards in Burgenland, where the Pannonian climate provides ideal conditions for fully ripe, aromatically dense Shiraz wines.


Scheiblhofer The Shiraz is vinified as a dry wine and matures for an impressive 20 months in new barriques, which lends the wine structure, complexity and excellent ageing potential. With an alcohol content of 14.5%, the 2023 vintage is powerful, yet balanced and precise. Despite its intensity, the wine retains a playful elegance and delicate fruit, which makes it feel not heavy but invigorating. The recommended drinking window from 2025 to 2035 underlines the ambition of this Austrian Shiraz as a long-lived, characterful red wine.
