2024 The Other Right Love Potion Shiraz

The Other Right’s ‘Love Potion’ is a joyful expression of McLaren Vale Shiraz that’s as thoughtful as it is delicious. Crafted by Alex Schulkin and Galit Shachaf from their organic Sellicks Hill vineyard, this limited-release wine is dedicated to unity—embracing connection not just with loved ones, but with humanity as a whole.

The Shiraz, with a small touch of Grenache, is grown on Ernst Sigel’s NASAA-certified organic site and undergoes carbonic maceration, yielding a vibrant, fresh profile. Alex’s background in wine research shows through in the wine’s impeccable balance, combining the philosophy of natural winemaking with an expert hand in crafting clean, expressive flavours.

Dark berries, chocolate, cedar, and cracked black pepper dominate, while the Grenache adds a subtle lift of blue fruit. The whole-bunch fermentation imparts a lively edge, making this wine perfect for chilling and enjoying in warmer weather. It’s approachable yet brooding, juicy yet structured—designed to bring people together over a glass.

With only 80 dozen produced, ‘Love Potion’ is a fleeting but unforgettable ode to love in all its forms. A must-try for those seeking a Shiraz with soul.
