Jacob's Creek 2006 Shiraz Australia



For having no distinguishable flavors, this is a pretty tasty wine. Maybe I'm starting to like bland more than I use to? While not for your highly sophisticated crowd, it goes well with any casual event. Water sprites, tree nymphs, or even a mountain satyr bud, this goes well with all.

Bacchus speak:
A mediocre deep violet, with plenty of legs. It smells. Nothing in a bad way, but no real identifiable notes of anything other than you can tell it's wine. The taste is pleasant and balanced, with a bit of tannin on the finish. Like the nose, the tongue doesn't convey much of anything.

Note: This review was done from a bottle that had been opened 24 hours prior to the first tasting.
