Ulithorne Prospera McLaren Vale Shiraz Magnum 2022


The Ulithorne winery was founded in 1950 when Bob Whiting planted thirty acres of vines in McLaren Vale’s now-famous sub-region of Blewitt Springs. Over the decades it has cemented its reputation as an iconic Australian producer, known for its “small-batch, high-quality wines” (Halliday Wine Companion).
Ulithorne Prospera Shiraz is crafted from grapes grown on the estate’s Blewitt Springs vineyard and matured for eighteen months in seasoned French oak barrels. Marcus Ellis of Halliday Wine Companion awards the wine 93 points, praising its “cavalcade of plum, blackberry and ripe raspberry, with black cherry pastille, licorice, vanilla and iron.”
A magnum bottle of supple, fruit-rich Shiraz like this is brilliant with grilled lamb cutlets, rosemary-roasted veg or a hearty mushroom and lentil bake.
