Vintage Cellar review: 60% Shiraz 40% Cabernet Sauvignon. It is dry and contains subtle tobacco undertones with a black licorice, cherry, scent. The oak is in the background. Would pair well hamburger or a steak rather than stand alone.
My review: On the nose, it was fairly grapey, but a lot of what I got was cherries. It smelled like a mix between a dark red, fresh cherry and a maraschino cherry. As for the taste, it actually tasted pretty salty, which was interesting. The tannins were very obvious in this wine, as my mouth was sucked dry from it. Along with salty, it was also pretty bitter and not sweet or fruity at all.
I did not have any food with this wine.
