Meerea Park Hell Hole Shiraz 2006

Made by Meerea Park in Australia (region: Hunter Valley) .

A dry, still, red wine with 13.5% alcohol tasted on 11th Aug 2009.

Grape: Shiraz

Quality: Very Good

Value: Okay

Cost: Usually between $46.75 - $55.99.

Looks: Dark crimson colour, not too deep, with a medium body

Smells: Leather, spice, raspberry that is just off ripeness

Feels: Medium

Tastes: Yum. Lovely Hunter shiraz in grand Hunter tradition. A true medium bodied wine with intense flavours. Earthy, leathery, peppery and with a good gritty tannin structure, this screams for meat while still retaining some good raspberry fruit tones and a nice line of acidity holding it together. Good stuff indeed.
