Tasting- Shotfire Cabernet/Shiraz Barossa

Name: Shotfire Cabernet/Shiraz Barossa

Price: $17.95
Region: Barossa
Country: Australia
Year: 2010

Description: "Another winner and sensational, the 2010 Shotfire Cabernet Sauvignon-Shiraz is a blend of 56% Cabernet Sauvignon and 44% Shiraz. A whopper of a wine, it is deep ruby/purple and possesses loads of glycerin and full body along with stunning notes of wood spice, graphite, blackberry and pepper. Rich, chewy, and dense, in a typically bold, exuberant Aussie style, this is a wine to drink over the next 6-10 years." 91 points, Robert Parker


This Australian red was nothing but fruity to me, with a half-dry finish.
