Shiraz/Syrah

The mouthfeel is succulent with abundant freshness/energy. Cherries are consistent from the nose to the palate, as is liquorice, however in this instance, the impression is more akin to Dutch liquorice. Saffron, coffee bean, sarsaparilla and cola creaminess add to the textural interest, almost certainly oak-derived elements that soften and encapsulate the tannins.

Dark and deep purple, Casillero Del Diablo Red Blend from the house of Concha y Toro, is densely packed with aromas of black cherry and dark plum, slight spice, and a soft touch of bitter chocolate. Notes of dark plum and firm, round tannins burst on the palate, and are softened by its velvety texture. A smooth, well balanced wine, it pairs well with grilled meat, lamb stews with herbs and other hearty preparations.

Lindeman’s Bin 50 Shiraz features aromas of vanilla, liquorice, dark berry fruits with a hint of peppery spice, while the full-bodied palate shows blackcurrant, plum and vanilla flavors supported within a soft tannin structure that makes this wine immediately approachable.

Intense purple red color. The bouquet shows hints of violet, then an explosion of black fruit (black cherry, blackcurrant) combined with black pepper hints. The palate is marked by the attack that gives away to a nice evolution on the fruit in a consistent set and the finish is raised by the spicy notes. Heritage It was in 1725 that Irishman Thomas Barton settled in Bordeaux to start his company, which is today the city’s oldest winehouse still in activity… His grandson Hugh teamed up with Frenchman Daniel Guestier and in 1802 their partnership became official. From the Chartrons area in the center of Bordeaux, barrels and bottles were loaded on board of ships that sailed via the Garonne river to numerous countries, starting with Ireland, England, Holland and the USA to reach over 130 countries at present.

This medium bodied, deep red blend is bold with strong fruit flavors and hints of sweet blackberry. Well-balanced with medium tannins, this wine would pair well with poultry or pasta dishes.

Blended primarily from Syrah and Merlot, the fruit for Robert Mondavi Private Selection Heritage hails from California’s coveted Central Coast vineyards.

Ripe and fruit-forward with soft tannins, this wine undergoes malolactic fermentation to enhance roundness and depth.
