Founded by David Paxton, one of Australia's leading viticulturalists, Paxton Wines is a certified biodynamic producer. This natural approach to farming, working in harmony with nature rather than against it, results in vibrant, expressive, and full of life wines. Paxton Shiraz reflects both place and philosophy. The influence of McLaren Vale’s maritime climate and ancient soils produces Shiraz with lifted aromatics, velvety structure and an effortless depth that sets it apart from more conventional expressions. No additives, no shortcuts, just beautifully made wine from the ground up.
Every bottle of Paxton Shiraz tells a story of sustainability and flavour. From fresh and fruit-forward options to complex, single-block releases, the range shows how biodynamic viticulture can bring out the finest characteristics of Shiraz grown in McLaren Vale.
The Paxton MV Shiraz 2022 represents the best of multiple vineyard sites across the estate. It’s generous and plush on the palate, with notes of blackberry, plum and a gentle hint of spice. This release balances richness with approachability. A reliable go-to for barbecued meats, grilled vegetables or slow-roasted lamb.
For those seeking a cleaner wine option, the Paxton ‘Now’ Preservative Free Shiraz 2021 is made without added preservatives and with minimal intervention. It’s all about purity, showing bright red and black fruits with soft tannins and a juicy, moreish finish. Organic, biodynamic and vegan-friendly, this Shiraz is a smart choice for casual dinners or sharing with friends who prefer a naturally made red.
Whether you're buying for a casual gathering or looking for something more serious, Paxton Shiraz offers plenty of choice. The MV Shiraz is ideal for weeknight meals or weekend entertaining, easy-drinking yet full-flavoured.
