Shiraz/Grenache/Mourvedre Turkey Flat Butchers Block Barossa Valley 2006
Very nice rich and fruity red wine. Slightly sweet without any tannins. Overall a very nice wine. I would have liked a slightly more robust finish but that’s just my tastes.
Price: $25.95

2006 Wyndham Estate Bin 515 Shiraz-Voignier
I was recently walking through the LCBO in Hawkesbury and saw this wine for the first time. I’m a fan of Shiraz wines in general so I picked up a bottle to try. I’m really glad I did. The blend of the voignier (8%) with the shiraz (92%) is very nice. The voignier varietal softens the full bodied taste of the shiraz and adds some subtle lighter aromas.
Price: $16.45
Tasting notes from the LCBO:
Opaque ruby red; aromas of black cherry, liquorice, violets, and perfume; medium to full bodied, displaying flavours of blackberries, mint, and chocolate.
