In this episode, we taste one of the top ten (by volume) wines sold in the UK, Yellow Tail Shiraz.
This wine produced in Australia is available around the globe.
The colour is a very deep red, and the nose is not what one would expect from a Shiraz.
Although having said that the nose or smell of the wine is very pleasant indeed and just because it does not smell like one would expect a shiraz to, it is in no way a detrimental comment about the wine.
John M detected blackcurrants on the nose while John L detected some red fruit but couldn’t narrow it down to a particular fruit.
On the palate, the taste surprised John L as it was much softer than he expected it to be very rounded in texture and without the pepper he would normally expect from a shiraz.
John M felt it was a tad too sweet for his personal taste, but he thought the tannins were well balanced and he detected a hint of a tobacco taste.
John L felt if you ignore that it is a Shiraz and do not judge it as such, the wine had a great taste, and a great balance of fruit, tannins, and alcohol.
John M would pair this with some Caerphilly Cheese
Both Johns agreed that this wine would pair with some nice sticky ribs!
With a score of seventy-two from John M and a seventy-seven from John L, the wine is worth trying and both Johns agreed that many people will enjoy this wine.
