Plunkett Fowles. 2008 Alexander Park Shiraz



General: This week's Friday night celebration for the end of the week

Variety: Shiraz

Region/G.I.: Central Victoria

Alcohol: 15% (really!)

Bouquet: No burnt nose hair from the alcohol. In fact, the nose is a good one - a bit earthy, a bit plummy and some wood as well

Flavour: Medium length and full flavoured. It checks all the boxed for Shiraz. Fruit. Check. Pepper in the aftertaste. Check. Some wood. Check. True - it is a little hot but I am not sure whether I am particularly aware of this because I checked the alcohol before starting.

Points: 82

Notes: A good one.
