Wine Tasting: WildLife Shiraz


Name:WildLife
Varietal: Shiraz
Region: Swartland
Country: South Africa
Year: 2013
Price: $4.95
Wine Notes: "Often referred to as Shiraz Country, the Riebeek Valley is renowned for exceptional Shiraz wines. WildLife Shiraz is a lively rich wine; full-bodied with a subdued smokiness on the nose and a palate of ripe fruit and interesting spice. Well-balanced and smooth, the aftertaste lingers with the exciting flavors of chocolate and spice."
My Review: This wine had a cherry, chocolate, and strawberry scent to it. When I tasted it I could detect high levels of tannins and the flavor was a bit sweet but also bitter and I could make out a light cherry flavor. I did not try this wine with food.
