South Africa

This is a blended wine made mainly from Shiraz, Grenache, Carignan and Viognier. Ripe fruit and spice on the nose. Layered ripe black fruit with earthy nuances, spice and fine grained tannins. A very nice wine for $15 that is age worthy. Paired with a chicken marsala that was heavy on the mushrooms...delish. 15%Alc/vol.

Wow!!! You're now in the same strastopheric company as our beloved Diamondbacks. Batting a killer 113&1/4th. WW [img]http://wines.com/ubb2/wink.gif[/img]

I'm pretty sure I had this brand (possibly an earlier vintage) at a restaurant and liked it.
