What to Expect
Australia has certainly made Syrah its own, even bestowing it with a new name: Shiraz. In the warm, dry climate of Australia this noble grape, responsible for some of the grandest wines of France, produces an intense, unique expression that is distinctly Australian. The ripe grapes take on classic notes of black pepper and leather that add depth and complexity to the black cherry and plum fruits on the palate. Australian Shiraz has typically been aged in American Oak barrels which impart the wine with a distinct note of vanilla that can add to the impression of ripeness many of these wines have, but the time in barrel also allows the wines a chance to settle and reveal their rich, voluptuously styled mouthfeel.

Color: deep purple, big color.
Nose: same bouquet as vodka and unsweetened, fresh-squeezed blueberry juice.
Flavor Profile: Starts out silky-smooth and "velvety." Over-the-top fruit; explosions of blueberry jelly, blackberry reduction sauce, over-ripe strawberries and cherries, really "jammy."
Surprisingly well-balanced wine (given the 16% alcohol content). The strong fruit flavors and acid tame the alcohol.
A totally new-world wine... like cramming your mouth full of different flavors of berry preserves.

Wine Advocate ReviewRated 93The 2006 Shiraz (68%) Merlot (17%) Cabernet Sauvignon (15%) Two Left Feet is a glass-coating opaque purple color. The brooding nose reveals plummy dark fruits, blueberry, licorice, and a hint of chocolate. On the palate it is thick, layered, and voluptuous. The structure is well-concealed and the wine is seamless and very long. It will reward a few years of cellaring but delaying gratification will be difficult. It is a great value.Wine Tasting NotesA blend of Shiraz, Cab, Merlot, the 2005 vintage was selected by Robert Parker as the 2nd "Best Value Wine in read more...
