Good wine for under $20, in you like new world stuff. Impressive for its concentrated beam of (mostly) red fruit, including plum, raspberry, and cherry. Pretty one-dimensional, but it does that dimension well. The main downside for my palate was a slight tinge of bitterness and noticeable heat on the finish.

A pretty nose and big black fruit taste. A bit overdone. Drink up.

Opened at holiday party. Consistent with previous notes. Nice fruit, good body, but a bit of heat on the finish. Last bottle.

Pretty tasty stuff. Drinking at peak right now. Nice nose. Good flavors in the mouth. Finishes smooth. Not super exciting but definitely above average

Prototypical syrupy and hot shiraz. Hot nose and dense mouthfeel with a blackberry liquer palate. Not my thing.
