Estate Grown Central Ranges Shiraz

Matthew had this 7 years ago

Pretty solid for an everyday bottle. Was a little tight at first but opened up with a little aeration. Nice fruit; a little earth but nothing crazy

Ok, good every day wine but nothing great.

Very nice budget Shiraz. Hard tannins and spice dominate. Black pepper and big smoke like pinotage. Finishes with french vanilla creme brulee, lingering to balance out the slightly austere front palate. Extremely pleasant.

A lot of dark fruit with a soft oaky undertone. Easy long Finnish. I defiantly recommend

🍷 — at Chateau on the Lake

Decent everyday quaff. Paired well with lamb chops.

Medium bodied, very fruity with some spice.

Pretty happy with this for a $10 grocery store buy. The fact that it had a little age on it (for a grocery wine) helps, I think. Dark fruit, and spice with ample acidity. Accentuated the grassy/gamey notes of seared lamb, especially w/ the fattier bites. Serve this w/ lamb to people who like (gamey) lamb. Nothing exceptional, but solid value.
