Grape Shiraz Cabernet
Year 2011
Price NZ$6.99
The tasting notes on the bottle are as follows:
Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon combine to create a wine with a bouquet of fresh red fruits, spice, mint and balanced oak. Soft, fruity and full of flavour this wine is best enjoyed young and fresh with rich, hearty dishes.
Nice.
But I think it needs a small rethink, perhaps to the following:
Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon, generally, grapes with reputable status, should have combined to create a wine with a bouquet of fresh red fruits, spice, mint and balanced oak. Instead, we have carefully replicated a moldy sock smell, not at all Soft, fruity and full of flavour, unless you dip a week old sock in a cup of water and drink it first, this wine should be best enjoyed young and fresh with rich, hearty dishes. The heartier the better, so as to get the taste out of your mouth.
But am I still drinking it?
Nah.
Try another year.
