As stated by others, short on the palate. Different from many others so worth a try. Not our “go-to” though.

Very dry, with dry earth flavor. But also lots of (too-)jammy fruit. Pretty short on the palate. From WSJ Wines Advent Calendar.

Bottle says product of France? It does taste like the other Australian Shiraz we just had open. Very subtle dark berries on the nose, light body with that sweet chocolate and tart berries palate. Slightly smoother and a nicer linger. Still not loving it. Might not be a fan of Aussie Shiraz?

Tannins are quite noticeable. I think after a period of drinking quite mellow reds this was shockingly bold
