Lindemans, Shiraz Bin 50, South Eastern Australia

Grapey and sappy, with almost candied cherry fruit, this is a young wine made to be consumed young.

Good value.

Okay cheap wine. Decent taste for the price point.

This wine is neither good nor bad but rather a complete bore. Wouldn't complete bore be bad? Yes, but I can get this for less than $4/btl. Smooth as silk, not annoyingly sweet, and there is actually some flavor but bore is the forefront characteristic. Why do I drink this stuff?

Tasted blind in VV. Dense, almost fully opaque purple color.

Still "okay", but nothing to write home about. The open bottle lasts about 1 day before going really bad due to oxidation, and wine in the glass lasts maybe an hour at most before oxidation hits it.

Bright Flavors, good fruit and acid
