Top Notes For
Sipping Fine Wine

Shoofly's winemaker Ben Riggs is a native of McLaren Vale and has been crafting some of the region's wine for two decades. Bright red with ripe berry fruit aromas with oak notes. On the palate blackberry and cherry, jammy in style, some oak and sweet cinnamon. Medium length, bright acidity ending a bit hot with a spicy character. Good value.

A smooth well balanced Shriaz with plum, sweet tabbaco, and hints of nutmeg and green peppercorns. Paired well with balsamic marinated sirloin steaks and garlic mashed potatoes. [12/24/16] ($10)

Jammy with fresh raspberry and other bramble fruits. Palate is ripe with a heavy finish redolent of asphalt.

#Shiraz

The nose is ripe, round, and jammy with black fruit typical of
#AustralianShiraz. The palate has plenty of black fruit and #junkinthetrunk
