Tasting - Black Opal Shiraz


Name: Black Opal Shiraz
Variety: Shiraz
Region: South Australia
Country: Australia
Year: 2011
Price: $7.95

Winery Review: The Black Opal wines are sourced from vineyards found in South Australia along the Limestone Coast, at Langhorne Creek and in
the infamous Barossa Valley. Black Opal Shiraz is rich red in the
glass. Aromas of blackberry, pepper and spice followed with rich
plum flavors round out the palate. Soft tannins give structure to the
fruit-driven palate.

My Review:  This wine was terrible.  Lots and lots of spice flavors that were not very appealing.  Lots of taste of peppers and different types of spices.  Overall not a very good wine.
