Trivanović Shiraz Reserve 2018

At a Glance

"Shiraz Reserve 2018" by Trivanović (Ivanović sphere) is a mature single-varietal Shiraz (Syrah) from the 2018 vintage. After several years of bottle aging, the wine has developed the depth and complexity characteristic of aged Syrahs.

In the Glass

Developed garnet-deep ruby; intense color with emerging tertiary reflections.

On the Nose

Ripe black fruit — blackberry, cassis — combined with black pepper and liquorice (classic Syrah profile). Secondary notes of tobacco, leather, and balsamic show bottle aging.

On the Palate

Full-bodied with now soft, well-integrated tannins. The acidity provides freshness and length. Complex and multi-layered — the Reserve character and the 2018 maturity come together harmoniously. The finish is very long.

Food Pairing

Grilled lamb chop, wild duck, venison goulash, aged hard cheese, black olive paste.
