Tasting - Crane Lake Shiraz

Name: Crane Lake Shiraz
Variety: Shiraz
Region: California
Country: United States
Year: 2013
Price: $5.95

Shop Review: Beautiful ruby appearance, with blackberry and pepper notes. Tannins and fruit marry well for a soft finish. This wine pairs well with sharp cheddar cheese and hazelnuts. Also try it along with roast lamb at Easter time, veal marsala, or grilled salmon.

My Review: This ruby red wine has intense smokey flavors mixed with chocolate covered espresso beans. Pepper mixes with these on the palate for a smooth finish.
