Ripe Blackberries, Warm Spice, and Generous Australian Charm

The 2025 De Bortoli Family Selection Shiraz Cabernet is an approachable, fruit-driven, and richly satisfying red blend from Southeastern Australia. Combining the plush, dark-berry depth and peppery warmth of Shiraz with the structured cassis and subtle herbal notes of Cabernet Sauvignon, it delivers vibrant aromas of black plum, blackberry jam, and gentle spice. The palate is medium-to-full-bodied, soft, and easy-drinking, supported by supple tannins and a smooth, clean finish.
