Tasting- Fox Creek Shiraz

Name: Fox Creek Shiraz
Variety: 100% Shiraz
Region: McLaren Vale
Country: Australia
Year: 2012
Price: $23

Winery Review: "Bright purple. Exotic, expansive aromas of black and blue fruit preserves, vanilla and cola, along with a peppery overtone and a hint of violet pastille. Broad, fleshy, appealingly sweet boysenberry and cherry liqueur flavors show excellent depth and a seamless texture. Finishes juicy and long, with building spiciness, an echo of blue fruit and round tannins."

My Review: This wine smells like dark red. The taste lingers on the tongue with dark black fruits. Plummy and heavier than the Italian Buongiorno Blend.

Paired with food: No, but this was my second favorite and I would definitely try it with food.
