Wine Tasting - Black Opal Shiraz


Wine Tasting:  Black Opal Shiraz

Name:  Black Opal Shiraz
Variety: Shiraz
Region: Barossa Valley

Country: Australia

Year: 2011

Price:
$7.95

Winery Review: The Black Opal wines are sourced from vineyards found in South Australia along the Limestone Coast, at Langhorne Creek and in the infamous Barossa Valley. Black Opal Shiraz is rich red in the glass. Aromas of blackberry, pepper and spice followed with rich plum flavors round out the palate. Soft tannins give structure to the fruit-driven palate.


My Review:
Peppery on the nose and in the aftertaste. Reasonably drinkable. My favorite of this weeks wines

I did not drink this wine with food.
