Gumdale Shiraz Reserve


Name: Gumdale Shiraz Reserve
Variety: Syrah
Region: Southeast Australia
Country: Australia
Year: N/A
Price: $10.99

Winery review: Hand-picked from Australia’s best growing regions, the grapes for this reserve wine offer concentrated fruit flavors and spicy notes. The wine is aged in French oak and has aromas of cherries, blackberries, chocolate and mocha. Serve it with full-flavored meats.

My review: This wine had a very pleasant smell. The bouquet was fruity and it seemed like it would taste sweet. On the other hand, I don’t think this wine had a lot of body. I didn’t taste anything in the mid palate and at the end all I got was acidity and a hint of coffee.  I did not pair this wine with food but I would like to.
