Nova Vita 2009 "Mad Russian" Shiraz





General: From the Shiraz case I bought last year....


Variety: Shiraz


Region/G.I.: Mount Lofty Ranges, Adelaide Hills


Alcohol: 14.5%


Bouquet: Restrained. Dense plum fruit.


Flavour: Good full flavour that carries through consistently. Interesting flavours of plum, rosemary, thyme and some vanilla. Integrated very nicely. You can taste it's young but very enjoyable as is. Would be perfect with lamb chops.


Points: 84


Notes: In the wine club it was about $14 (c.250 Kc). Well worth it. A lovely Shiraz.
