Item No. 91355
winemaker's notes:

Color: Medium red with a deep hue

Aroma: Shows strong vanillin and chocolate characters with a touch of spice

Palate: The mid palate has good weight and softness and the soft berry characters carry through to the finish. Deliberately light on tannins or oak, the wine shows lovely balance and bright fruit flavors.

Food pairings: Tomato-based pasta sauces, roast lamb, venison

"Attractive palate; clear, cool-grown but supple fruit with spice, licorice, pepper and blackberry flavours all intermingling."
-James Halliday

  very disappointing - 12/30/2008
I would not buy this wine again

This Shiraz was very disappointing. It was very acidic and bitter. Virtually undrinkable.

I would buy this wine again

Excellent Shiraz; can not be beaten for the price. I bought a case of highly rated (92+) reds under $20 and this one was one of my best finds so far.

I would buy this wine again

This wine has great spice, peppery, for a light to med bodied red. Would I recommend as a buy between 10-12 bucks...yes.

Kosher wine
Kosher
A Kosher wine begins like every other - as grapes on a vine. Once they reach the winery for crushing, the wine is under strict rabbinal supervision.

Screw Cap wine
Screw Cap
Many studies report and winemakers agree that screw caps protect wine better and preserve its flavor more effectively than cork. More importantly, screw caps eliminate cork taint caused by TCA, a compound which develops in a small percentage of corks and ruins the taste of wine.

Organically grown grapes
