Eventide Wellington Shiraz – 2005 – 9.3 – James Meléndez / James the Wine Guy

Aug 11, 12 6:48 PM

Author jamesthewineguy Categories 9.3

Scent notes of juniper forest, leather, simmering Oaxacan spices and chiles and underbrush.

Flavour notes of Acai, blueberry, amalgam of bramble berry, smoke, white mushroom, anise, bay leaf and Cardamom. A gorgeous wine, great acid structure– an accidental and solid find.

¡Salud!
