Wine Maker Review: "Attractive ripe berry fruit characters from the bouquet carry through with medium-bodied, soft and approachable tannins; this wine shows the harmony which can be achieved by carefully blending parcels of soft, rounded Shiraz with finely structured Cabernet Sauvignon, creating a wine with richly layered fruit flavours and a supple, long-lasting palate."
My Review: This wine is mild everything. Mild tannins, mild fruit, mild spice. The body is light-medium and has a mild mouth feel. I'm not even joking its just mild all around. So in that sense, you can't hate it because it gives you a little bit of everything without anything being overpowering. Don't hate it at all, just doesn't wow me. There's definitely brighter fruits like raspberries. Mild raspberries. I guess you could use approachable as a synonym for mild!! (they say that in the review)
