Tasting - Shotfire Barossa Shiraz 2012 Thorn-Clarke

Name: Shotfire Barossa Shiraz
Variety: 100% Shiraz
Region: Thorn-Clarke
Country: Australia
Year: 2012
Price: $ 17

Winery review: "This is a fantastic example of Barossa Shiraz. Rich cherry jam and sweet spice with a touch of vanillin oak on the nose and a smoothly textured, full flavoured palate with ripe grainy tannins. Great stuff!" - Dan Murphy 92 points

My review: A dark red color I dove right in and picked up cherry, plum and black currant on the nose with hints of black licorice. Phenomenal deep cherry and raspberry jam flavors with no bite and smooth texture. Medium body with nice legs. Winegasmic!

The wine was tasted on it's own with no food.
