winemaker's notes:

Bright plum with magenta hues, the 2008 Oxford Landing GSM has lifted forest berry fruits with hints of liquorice and spice. Plum and dark fruit from the Shiraz are complemented by the raspberries, red cherries and spice from the Grenache, creating a rich compote of flavors on the palate. These flavors are balanced on the palate by the chalky Mourvedre tannins that provide a slightly savory finish that lingers long after the wine is consumed.

alcohol by volume: 14.5%
critical acclaim:

"Bright ruby. Raspberry and cherry on the nose, with complicating notes of anise and rose. Shows an array of red fruit qualities on the palate, accented by a hint of bitter chocolate. Finishes with a light touch and good bite. This blend of grenache, shiraz and mourvedre offers impressive balance and delicacy for the money. "

For the price, this wine delivers. Drinks like Pinot Noir. Smooth, supple with round tannins and little bite. The nose is just fine. This wine is something different. I enjoyed it.

Not a fan - bitter and thoroughly dry. Not for my beginner's palate.
Style:Earthy & Spicy

this is absolutely the smoothest $8 wine that I have found. Great for daily consumption.
