  Drank with Elsa, Katie May, Justin and Wan. Tons of blackberry fruit throughout, some pepper and a hint of oak influence. Now, I don't think this is half as poor as what was made out in the earlier tasting notes. It is what it is - a simple, very manufactured, quaffing wine. A bit thin I must admit, and where was the Shiraz character man?! Still, I found it a pretty decent drink with nothing unplesant about it.

  Very simple to start, with a peppery kick. After an hour this acquired a slightly funky, meaty quality that added interest, though it has a little alcoholic. No real tannins. This is classicindustrial wine that has nothing much wrong with it other than it's total anonymity.
