Dark ruby garnet. Nose and palate of dark berries and black rubber. Firm (medium plus), velvety tannins usher in the full-bodied mouthfeel and stay through the medium long, dark finish. Medium acidity balances the lush, ripe fruit. Don’t let the name prejudice you. This is what we expect from a good midrange Aussie Shiraz, only at a bargain price. Drink up. They’ll make more.

Lots of good wines for $10 or so. This is mediocre.
