Best I’ve had for the price. Surprising vanilla oak flavor with fruit forward tannin finish.

Very good and smooth Shiraz that opens after the first glass. Raspberry and black current flavors with a subtle vanilla oak note.

Not quite the depth of other Syrah's but can't beat the $5 price at TJs. Hope this remains in stock for a while.

Was not as "old world" tasting aTJ's cashier that hard sold this to led me to believe. That said, it was definitely Syrah, but lacked complexity and had singular fruit and oak notes. However, this was pleasant drinking and cheap so I really can't complain.
