Bust this out on a Tuesday. American Idol becomes 100 times more entertaining after 1.5 liters of this hooch. Dude. Its Tuesday.

This wine was a great price ($5.99 USD in Washington, DC) and is one of the most drinkable bottles of Shiraz. It has all of the characteristics of a very good young Shiraz and has little tannin (no bite). For the price it may be one of the best wine values around.

I thought this was a nice flavor, especially for $6 or $7. My Wife thought it was a bit strong for her, but liked it mixed with a little Sprite.

My first and best experience with Shiraz. Great taste that goes down smooth with very little bite. When I'm in the mood for more tannins, I look elsewhere, though.
