This is a blend of Shiraz and other varietals. It is smooth and fruity, with a restrained touch of the rich, dense Australian Shiraz, but made more medium-bodied by the blend. The residual sugars are nicely balanced, with mild acidity. The flavors of strawberries and plums are prominent, with a touch of green pepper to the finish.

Nice red blend. Easy drinker - not much depth but good flavor.

For a red blend, it’s actually quite good. It’s just a bit drier than I like.
