Deep, bold and richly fruited, it opens with blackberry, black cherry and satsuma plum, followed by vanilla, dark chocolate, exotic spice, liquorice and warm oak. It has the name, the bottle size and the muscle, but crucially, it also has St Hallett’s polish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"477\" data-end=\"831\"\u003eThe palate is full-bodied, dense and powerful, with excellent black fruit intensity, seasoned American oak character and firm, fine-grained tannins carrying the wine through a long, persistent finish. This is a proper celebration bottle: generous, impressive and built for a table where slow-cooked meat, big glasses and good company are already waiting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"833\" data-end=\"1184\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"833\" data-end=\"845\"\u003eFor when\u003c\/strong\u003e you want Barossa Shiraz with scale, swagger and a magnum’s sense of occasion.\u003cbr data-start=\"923\" data-end=\"926\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"926\" data-end=\"940\"\u003ePairs with\u003c\/strong\u003e slow-cooked beef, lamb shoulder, ribeye steak, barbecue brisket, venison pie, smoky aubergine, or aged cheddar.\u003cbr data-start=\"1052\" data-end=\"1055\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1055\" data-end=\"1077\"\u003eIf this wine were…\u003c\/strong\u003e a machine, it would be an old iron press in a Barossa shed: heavy, beautiful and still doing serious work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1186\" data-end=\"1722\"\u003eSt Hallett is one of the Barossa’s defining Shiraz producers, established in 1944 and widely recognised for its deep understanding of old vines, grower parcels and regional expression. Mighty Ox comes from northern Barossa vineyards in Ebenezer, Greenock and Moppa Hills, with vines around 25 years old and fruit grown on rich clay soils. The wine is matured in seasoned American oak and released only in 1.5L magnum, giving this Shiraz both the scale and the cellaring potential to match its name.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wine Republic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55705423511937,"sku":null,"price":79.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0916\/0513\/9841\/files\/2018MightyOxShiraz_StHallett_Magnum.png?v=1779288058","url":"https:\/\/www.wine-republic.co.uk\/products\/2018-mighty-ox-shiraz-st-hallett-magnum","provider":"Wine Republic","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
