Community Tasting Notes 10

  June 27, 2011 - Sharp aromas of black raspberries. Silky smooth on the palate with the tannins almost fully integrated. Pure blackberry and raspberry flavors come out nicely. Just amazing how pure and silky this is now. Probably will only stay this way for a year or so and then start to fade. I've really been enjoying Australian Shiraz with 5-7 years on it.

  February 3, 2011 - A skittles rainbow of flavors on the nose along with some tobacco and leather. Candied flavors coat the palate. Dark berries come through well. Cocoa makes an appearance at the end. Flavors are a bit fake, but not too bad, it's just damn delicious. ($12)

  October 12, 2008 - This was really quite an enjoyable wine and well worth its low price. Deep red with subtle peppers. Absolutely worth its price.

  April 11, 2008 - Good Shiraz for the price, not as big and bold as other Shiraz - smooth with a sweet finish.

  February 1, 2008 - Another great bottle from Craneford. For $12 this is a great buy on a not so bold Shiraz from Barossa Valley. Very soft and smooth with a faint sweet finish.
