Yellow Tail 2004 Shiraz

For $4.99, this bottle is supremely drinkable. It's definitely fruit first in the Aussie tradition, with strong berry and melon flavors and an undercurrent of spiciness from the grapes. It has a rich full-bodied mouth feel, isn't too sweet, and has a smooth finish. It's pretty good off the shelf, but with a year of cellaring it's very good. Great with steaks and lasagna.

Great bottle of wine for the price. It definitely beats any other shiraz in its price range.

Have tried several of the Yellow Tail wines. Have been happy with all of them. Excellent for the price.

A great wine for the price. Probably the best low-budget shiraz I have tasted on the market. Even at $10-$12 in Bermuda, it's still a bargain.

Great shiraz/syrah...especially at $7/bottle (Fort Worth, TX.) We enjoyed our last bottle with spaghetti with meat sauce and salad greens.

Inexpensive but full-bodied, this is one of my favorite wines to pick up in a hurry. It's light on the wallet and always tasty.

I used to like this wine but i'm done with it. Actually to be honest, i really liked it for the price point originally. But a few bottles later it is just SO over the top .... HUGE fruit, almost sweet, and just feels phony -- let the grapes talk! Kind like the Justin Timberlake of the wine world ... AKA OVERPRODUCED. But again, 5 bucks hell ....
