Very light for a shiraz but still a very decent every day red - especially at this price

I like this wine. I get a light cherry chocolate on the nose and blackberry and black pepper flavour with a little minerality and a long, dry finish. Feels well balanced with a light/medium body. A lighter body than I normally expect from a Shiraz but still good. The label pictured here is differnt from the label on the bottle I bought and I really like the label it is colourful and says that the wine is fair trade and certified carbon neutral. I great buy at 8.95. I would certainly buy this again.

A good value and approachable shiraz that should please a crowd if a large gathering is on hand for a summer bbq. Typical S.A. entry level shiraz with up front spice, fruitiness, not a great deal of length nor complexity, but acceptable as a party red when meat is on the grill. Grip it n' sip it. June 2013.
