Natalie's Score: 92/100

Claymore Dark Side Of The Moon 2021 is a great value, cool-climate Clare Valley Shiraz at $20. Fragrant with dark berry fruit, toasty oak spice, nutty and cocoa flavours rich on the nose and plushy on the palate, the wine is drinking beautifully now through 2032. Tannins are rich and textured. Enjoy it with steaks from the grill.

Shiraz food pairings: grilled New York striploin steak, roast leg of lamb, veal medallions in a rich wild mushroom sauce.

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.
