Tasting - Lost Vineyards Shiraz/ Cabernet Sauvignon

Name: Lost Vineyards Shiraz/ Cabernet Sauvignon
Varietal: 60% Shiraz, 40% Cabernet Sauvignon
Region: N/A
Country: Argentina
Year: NV
Price: $4.95

Winery Review: It is dry and contains subtle tobacco undertones with a black licorice, cherry, scent. The oak is in the background. Would pair well with a hamburger or steak rather than stand alone.

My Review: The cherry, and black licorice scents were very strong on the nose giving it a delicious aroma. On the palate this wine was smooth, with little acidity and was not quite as dry as 100% Cabernet Sauvignon's. However, it had a bit of dryness at the end while leaving a taste of berry on the tongue. I would definitely try this wine again.

Food: N/A
