Top Notes For
Two Forks and a Corkscrew

This was the first Shiraz we reviewed and we will definitely be sampling Shiraz more often as we really enjoyed this bottle. This wine opens with notes of cherry, strawberry, and raspberry, with notes of black pepper on the backend. Chris felt the finish wasn't very long, but I thought there was a nice long finish. This wine is very dry. The tannins are very heavy. Read our full review here: http://wp.me/p5EPbt-6m

Strange flavor. Peppery? Drinkable, but didn't enjoy.
