Tasting - Concannon Shiraz

Name: Concannon Shiraz
Varietal: Shiraz/Syrah
Region: Central Coast, California
Country: USA
Year: 2008
Price: $7.95

Wine Shop Review: This is an extremely rich, full-bodied wine with a dark fruit core. Aromas of blackberry, blueberry, cassis and dark cherry are followed by more berry fruits and chocolate and mocha on the palate.

My Review: You could tell this was going to have a heavier smokey flavor to it just by the nose. It had a thick mouth feel to it that hung around with blackberry and tobacco flavors along with some dark coffee notes.

I tasted this wine without any food.
