Simonsig Cabernet Shiraz 2005

Stellenbosch, Coastal Region, South AfricaSimonsig's ode to the famous Aussie blend makes it for the price. It warm with a large dollop of sweet fruit followed by smoky meaty, chocolate/cherry, leather (Band-aid) and coffee flavours. Still has bit of that dirty, muddled SA styling that would disappear with food.Tasted: 26 January 2008Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
