Shiraz, Petite Syrah, and Symphony
California, USA
$6.95
Shop review: Shiraz has a unique jammy fruit character that is well represented in the Sweet Red. Both on the nose and on the palate, jammy fruit, like strawberries, cherry pie and red licorice, entices the sense and pair well with cheeses and desserts.
Color: mid-deep red
Smell: mixed berry
Taste: a little oak, very sweet!, mixed berry, blueberry
*Tried with a Chinese donut a few nights later: The sweetness of the donut completely took away the sweetness of the wine and made it dryer and a little more acidic tasting. The tannins came out more with the sweet food.
Personal rating: Very good! Sweet and oakey makes a good combination.
