Overview Australian Shiraz has been massively popular in the U.S. wine market for some time now. While we feel that this won’t hold forever, if and when the fad passes, there will still be plenty of very decent inexpensive wine to be had for the drinker who’s willing to disregard the trends of the day. For now, this wine isn’t a bad place to start, with its aggressive but not overwhelming flavors and bright fruit.

Nose Cherries and a green, vegetal aroma dominate the nose.

Mouth It’s quite balanced for a Shiraz, with a nice earthy note.
