Grant Burge 2008 Shiraz

General: Part of the case from the first Cellarmasters shipment I bought

Variety: Shiraz

Region/G.I.: Barossa

Alcohol: 14.5%

Bouquet: Plum paste (I cannot remember what it's called in Czech), vanilla and a hint of spice

Flavour: Excellent. Full, luscious fruit on the tongue with some pepper and vanilla integrated nicely. The texture is silky smooth which surprised me for such a young wine. Medium length.

Points: 84

Notes: Discounted this was $19 (341) and it was special. My Cellarmasters experience to date has been excellent and I am keen to work my way through their range.
