Comments:

Plum and black cherry flavors are very strong on the front end. The wine shows some depth and complexity on the back end. Unfortunately, the tannins arrive a bit too quickly and overshadow the subtle flavors of the finish.

 

From the Label:

74% Shiraz 26% Cabernet Sauvignon, South Eastern Australia, Vintage 2004

Combining the warmth and spice of Shiraz with the fruity richness of Cabernet Sauvignon, this early drinking wine will suit a broad range of cuisines.
