Obelisk Wines Uncharted Bio Dynamic Shiraz 2020
About the wine
A bold, voluptuous and intense red
- Anna and Derek return with another outstanding vintage of their Uncharted Biodynamic Shiraz. Authenticity is reflected in the Hooper's approach to both wines and life, letting Mother Nature lead the way by following certified bio-dynamic and organic winemaking techniques.
- This is the wine that best shows their winemaking philosophy - sourcing the best fruit, without taking from the planet, and creating the best wine possible. Its base of ripe red fruit, a layer of dark chocolate and a shake of Christmas spice wrap you in rich red luxury and give you a playful tannin kick.
- The premium grapes have given this wine a flavour intensity and complexity second to none. The past vintage rated through the roof. It will only improve gracefully over the years, so nab it before it's snapped up!
Best before
This wine is drinking well now (but do let it breathe) however over the next ten years it will become softer and more savoury if you prefer an aged style with more tertiary characteristics. Many Angels have been rewarded for their patience.
Serving advice
Let this breathe
resist the temptation to pour yourself a glass for an hour. If you must pour
decant and allow the layers to open up!
Get back to tradition, when you would open up the wine and place on the table when the guests arrive
perfection has been reached by the time you sit down to sup!
Food match
We love our Shiraz with pasta! We love our Shiraz with a beef in red wine casserole! We love our Shiraz with a delicious creamy blue cheese! We love our Shiraz with a juicy steak or some smoked kangaroo
we just love our Shiraz!
BUT
.
Meat doesnt necessarily need to be the hero with this intense flavourful Shiraz. It loves the dense earthiness of mushrooms and the robustness of eggplant. Think wild mushroom tart with a simple spinach and shaved Parmesan salad or roast eggplant and lentil ragout. Or if you really must have meat try something a little different like roast duck with a sticky caramel glaze is sure to be a match!

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Derek Hooper
- Both Anna and Derek are super experienced, having made wine in Bordeaux and Rhone just to name a few, before landing in Mount Benson on the Limestone Coast.
- They're really passionate about where they live. Their house is situated on top of Woakwine Range overlooking the townships of Robe, Cape Jaffa and Kingston. When vintage isn't so manic, they love listening to chill-out music in the cellar, comparing notes about the surf over the weekend and having a well earned beer at the end of a hard day's work!
- Their wines are expressive of their region and sustainably made. Whilst their 'Obelisk' range is exclusive to the Naked Angels ,some other wines in their stable have already been declared Outstanding by James Halliday... they are definitely a couple to look out for.
