Overview
The Fabric Series 'Silk' Shiraz from Paisley Wines is a tribute to heritage, style, and the art of winemaking. Inspired by the timeless paisley pattern — a symbol of elegance that shares roots with the Scottish town of Paisley, where co-founder Kirsten’s great-great-grandfather was born — this Barossa Shiraz weaves a narrative of tradition and finesse. Sourced from premium Barossa fruit, ‘Silk’ lives up to its name with a graceful, textured profile that’s vibrant in its youth yet structured for cellaring. It’s a refined expression of modern Barossa that balances opulence with precision.
Tasting notes
Deep red in hue, the nose offers lifted aromas of plum, blackberry, and a gentle thread of sweet spice. The palate is medium to full bodied, brimming with dark fruits — juicy blackberry and blueberry — interwoven with hints of clove, nutmeg, and a savoury edge. Elegant and polished, the wine flows seamlessly with fine-grained tannins and vibrant acidity, culminating in a long, poised finish. A versatile pairing for dishes like air-dried steak, spaghetti bolognese, or aubergine parmigiana, this Shiraz offers richness and balance in equal measure, with ageing potential of up to a decade.
