The Barossa, undiluted and unapologetic 🔥🍷

The 2023 The Standish is the heart of the range—pure, old-vine Shiraz from a single vineyard in the heart of Greenock, where red clay soils and ancient vines produce wines of depth, power, and precision.

Recognised as a Classified (Second Growth) in Langton’s Classification, The Standish is a benchmark for what modern Barossa can be: bold without being overblown, complex without losing its core of dark fruit, spice, and earthy allure. It’s intense, structured, and made for the long haul.

If you’re building a cellar—or just want to experience Standish at its most definitive—this is the bottle.

What the experts say about this wine

The 2023 The Standish Shiraz is the most "Barossan" of all the Standish cuvées. It exudes earthy brick dust tannins and layers sumac and exotic spices with roasted game and sweet marrow. There are notes of black cherry, dried rose petals, sandalwood, hung deli meat and licorice, all of it strapped to rails of grounded tannin. It's chewy, substantial and of the earth, in its way. The fruit is sourced from the Laycock family vineyard in Greenock, as always, and it expresses the red clay and loam soils there in its splay of tannic fortitude and density. This is very impressive. It is fresh yet meaty/rocky—both attractive qualities in Shiraz/Syrah.
