Guardian Peak
Shiraz
Western Cape, South Africa
Fairly simple Shiraz and quite forgettable. Has some dark fruit flavors and a little leather. Maybe too much dust. Light to medium body, but I wish it was bigger.

Really bright red ruby color. Has some dense, muddled scents. There is an instant coffee aroma that is slightly off putting. Id like it if it was a bit more real coffee. Some chocolate and red fruits inside, like cherry. Tastes a bit too much like syrup though. I guess if you like cheap cherry chocolate truffle things this could suit you but it’s not for me.

Nice black cherry aroma! Definitely fruity with slight vanilla taste. Tannins make the mouth watery. Delicious wine.

Vinho elegante, com aparência vermelho rubi brilhante. Evidente aroma de frutas vermelhas maduras com cassis e ameixa branca e insinuações de café.

Slightly stewed fruits with black pepper with some light oak. Sharp and acidic for a red. Diatonic tin metallic taste. Some vanilla. Unique.
