Tasting - Little Penguin Shiraz with the Hill Family

Name: Little Penguin Shiraz
Variety: Shiraz
Region: South Eastern Australia
Country: Australia
Year: 2009
Price: $7.99

Winery Review: Hold this hefty red to the light and marvel at the dense, bright magenta hues. savor the splashes of chocolate, spice and juicy strawberries on the nose. the flavor has equally impressive dark sweet fruit, closing with and impressive length.

My Review: Alright so I much preferred the previous Shiraz to this one. A red color not to be very impressed with and a very strong alcohol smell. It is a very dry wine with not fruit to it. It had a bit of nutty flavor but otherwise burned going down. Plain was the over all feeling for this one.
