From the folks at Coriole in the McLaren Vale wine region, this 2003 Shiraz Cabernet is another great drop from the Coriole range of wines.
A predominantly Shiraz with a hint of Cabernet Sauvigon, the wine is a smooth clean taste with a mild spice which comes from the oak. Extremely fruity, lots of good red fruit, and what I though was plum, but actually reading in to it is more raspberry. Fruity with still a slight dry pallet, a drop that once again pays to lay it down for a few years to mature.
On the food front, I had a Penne dish with Mushrooms and Pesto with a nice sprinkle of fresh parmesan to top it all off.
A nice meal to end a good weekend.
