Marquis Philips Roogle Red 2006
Red Wine
from South Australia, Australia
winemaker's notes:
Blend: 50% Shiraz, 30% Merlot, 20% Cabernet
Deep crimson. Fresh fruit of plums and ripe red berries. Some savory
notes balanced by licorice and marzipan, subtle tobacco leaf and brambly characters.
"The 2006 Red is composed of 50% Shiraz, 30% Merlot, and 20% Cabernet Sauvignon. It was aged in seasoned French and American oak for 12 months. Dark ruby-colored, it offers attractive aromas of cedar, cassis, blueberry, and plum. Plush and fruit-driven on the palate, this is a ripe, tasty wine for casual quaffing with burgers and pizza over the next 4-6 years. It is a superb value."
