Tasting-Oxford Landing Estates Shiraz


Name: Oxford Landing Estates Shiraz
Variety: 100% Shiraz
Region: South Australia
Country: Australia
Year: 2011
Price: $4.95
Shop review: “A deep purple red, the Oxford Landing Estates Shiraz 2011 has lifted aromas of plums and black cherries with hints of violets and white pepper. The generous palate has dark berry fruit flavors of blackberry and plum, complimented by soft, supple tannins with hints of chocolate and spice. The subtle oak influence and bright fruit flavors linger during the long succulent finish.” (Oxford Landing Estates, South Australia, Australia)

My review: This wine had a light red-violet color, and a smell of sour caramel and cream.  This smell you could feel.

I ate this food with spaghetti and marinara sauce.  With the pasta, it had a creamy, caramel taste, with a pleasant finish.  Overall it was a nice wine.
