2022 Pedar Shiraz

A deeply personal endeavor for Darioush Khaledi, Pedar—meaning “father” in Farsi—is a heartfelt tribute to his own. This naturally crafted, 100% estate-grown Shiraz reflects the purity and simplicity of the winemaking techniques Darioush first observed as a child. Richly saturated and layered with spice and intrigue, Pedar is more than a wine—it is a celebration of legacy and a testament to the joy found in doing what one loves.

Tasting Notes

Bright and expressive, the 2022 Pedar opens with lifted aromas of rhubarb, violet, and fresh herbs.

The nose carries a lively brightness that flows onto the palate, where notes of red plum and black cherry are layered with savory tones of black olive and Provençal herbs. Medium-bodied yet dense in character, the wine’s supple texture is framed by fine tannins and a vein of refreshing acidity. Subtle undertones of white pepper, fennel seed, and earth linger on the finish, revealing Shiraz’s hallmark spice and depth.
