The Butterfly Effect Shiraz

The wine looks garnet colored. The legs are medium. There is no sediment in the bottle. It tastes like red currant. The body is light/medium. The wine has satin-like texture. The wine finishes medium. The wine has medium acidity.

This is pretty ghastly stuff. Bright cherry red / purple notes and an attractive pinot noir (yes!) smell betoken a fruity but very dilute wine. The acidity is flat, the palate dilute and fruity with fair amounts of cherry / plum. The finish is short. Left for 15 minutes in the glass, once the pleasant fruitiness has blown off, all that is left is a flat woody red watery mess. Best drunk at a student party. There are better wines …

Good fruit. Kind of young, very high acidity and accompanied by tart/sour mouthfeel

Delicate forest berries and liqueur cherries on the nose with a bright acidity in the palette and red fruit finish that brings out the dusty, chocolatey tannins.
