My review: This wine smelled like cherries, and tasted like dark fruit (like plums or cherries) and was slightly spicy like pepper. I did not have it with food.

The wine shop's review: A classic blend of Shiraz and Grenache, with the raspberries, blackcurrant, licorice and spice characteristic of the Shiraz complementing the upfront cherry and cola flavors of the Grenache. The balanced wine offers earthy tones, strawberry aromas and vibrant acidity.
