Shingleback 2005 McLaren Vale Grenache

First things first- This is a very tasty wine. Big, bold fruit flavor. This screams "Australia". Mouthfilling with currant, cherry, boysenberry jaminess. Nicely restrained oak lends a tasty vanilla component...but is still rich. This wine is like cheesecake drowned in a berry sauce. And the finish is very nice. From what I can tell, this offering from Shingleback is not widely available in the States. But it is worth seeking out.
