Tried and Tested: Simple Steak & Skillogalee Shiraz

All week I was looking forward to a lovely Saturday night sat outside and cooking a lovely piece of steak on the BBQ… But… then it rained!

So we decided to bring the BBQ indoors (not literally)! After being with Dave and Diana Palmer from Skillogalee in the shop on Saturday I picked up a bottle of their Basket Press Shiraz to have with my steak and it was utterly delicious!!

I like to have my steak cooked rare. And the succulent, juicy, flavoursome texture of the meat was an absolutely perfect match with, with the intense dark berry fruit character of the shiraz. Even though this is a full bodied red wine, it is just perfect for a summer bbq! Try it for yourself!
