Fish Hock Shiraz 2010

Region: South Africa
Grapes: Syrah
Description: This is a smooth, medium-bodied, easy-drinking red that is pleasantly spicy on the finish. It has ripe, juicy red-berry fruit combined with vanilla and black pepper on the nose and palate. Slightly darker in colour than you would expect it is not a heavy as it first appears, although at the higher end of the alcohol range.
Price: £7.59
ABV: 14.5%
Closure: Screw Top
Source: Waitrose
Occasion: Grilled meat, BBQ red meat
Comments: Blended by winemaker Bruce Jack at the Flagstone Winery in South Africa, this is a good example of a medium bodied Shiraz. Many will buy this wine for the humurous fish-bone label to have over a Sunday lunch, but that is OK, as at the price of this wine there is not much else of as good quality.
