Cape Mentelle Shiraz 2005

Made by Cape Mentelle in Australia (region: Margaret River) .

A dry, still, red wine with 15% alchohol tasted on 28th Dec 2007.

Grape: Shiraz

Quality: Very Good

Value: Okay

Cost: Usually between $29.99 - $32.99.

Looks: Deepish red in colour - never quite black - with a medium to full body

Smells: White pepper, cherry and plum

Feels: Medium to full bodied

Tastes: I like the tannins in lots of Margaret River Shiraz, and this is no exception. Chewy, sandpapery and interesting. The cherry and plum flavours are nice, but it is the spice in this wine that makes it - white pepper and cloves. Good length, needs meat!

Possible retailers: Vintage Cellars, Cellar Door, Dan Murphy's, Kemeny's, 1st Choice.
