This Shiraz is a deep purple in the glass; a perfect start to your journey through Pagans. We can all agree that a crime novel should be paired with a red, and this one is intense and full-bodied, to match the bloody crime between the pages. A peppery red, the Telegraph Road has notes of dark chocolate, blackberry, and dark plum.
Pagans, while richly imaginative in setting, doesn’t go all the way to the darker ends of crime fiction. For this pacey police procedural, you need something that isn’t too weighed down, which is why we picked a slightly easier-drinking, fruitier red. Firm tannins and a careful acidity keep it well-balanced.
