This South African Shiraz has aromas and flavors of blueberries, blackberries. Semi-sweet, with emphasis on sweet. Good aperitif and pairs well with both sweet and savory foods. Delicious with chocolate, which brings out its chocolate undertones. Best chilled.

Cloying, but the label should be fair enough warning. Enjoyed with crushed ice, may be good as a sangria base. Mild chocolate and tobacco.

Not sure what to compare this to, other than Manischewitz wines I drink during Passover seders. It’s an improvement other those, with a distinct berry sweetness without going too far. A good summer wine, chilled slightly with burgers and/ or spicy foods.

This wine is sweeter than I usually like but a friend told me to try it. It’s surprisingly smooth for the price. You can barely taste the alcohol and the sweetness diminishes with each sip.
