Winery Review: This is red wine is a well above average effort with
lots of flavor as well as Australia's so easily obtainable, lush fruit. The
2013 Shiraz/Cabernet Sauvignon (55% and 45% respectively) exhibits a dark
ruby/purple hue along with a layered, peppery, berry fruit-scented nose
revealing licorice and meaty notes. From a much lighter vintage, it is a
supple, easygoing red to enjoy now and over the next several years.
My Review: This wine smelled heavily of tropical fruit with a strong overtone of salami and had a nice purple color. The strange combination on the nose was reflected in the taste. I first tasted fruit immediately but that was followed swiftly by a sharp alcohol meat flavor. I did not enjoy this wine at all.
