This wine is a Garnacha from Spain. We highly recommended the Tempranillo from Tapena, so I thought I’d give the Garnacha a try. This wine would be enjoyed much more by someone who prefers sweeter wine. We enjoy dryer wines, so go ahead and add a trophy if you think you like sweeter wines. |

- Very ripe aromas of berries and cherries.
- Has a strong sweet taste, especially before decanting.
- Tastes of almond, vanilla and jammy berries.
- Decanting is highly recommended as it mellows the wine out quite a bit.
- This wine is like that sweet and naive girl you meet one day. Once you get to know her though, you realize that she’s actually not that naive at all… but still very sweet.

This wine is a Shiraz from the Barossa Valley in South Australia. This is our first review of a Shiraz wine. Shiraz wines are the same as Syrah (or Sirah) wines with the difference being that they are from Australia. |

- Rich and dark with purple hues.
- Aromas of blackberries and chocolate.
- Tastes of vanilla, spice and berries.
- Would go best with big flavored foods.
- Bold and a little harsh with the alcohol taste coming through.
- I was expecting this wine to be layered with goodness and many different dimensions. Instead, this wine was more like a layer cake that sat in the sun all day, and the layers all kind of melted together. Not horrible, but I was disappointed.

This is a Cabernet Sauvignon from California. |
| $6 |

- Fruity bouquet
- Middle of the road in terms of sweetness
- A little harsh right out of the bottle
- Plums and cherries in the initial taste then fades very fast
- A bit boring and run of the mill. This wine does not excite or entice you. Like going on a blind date and having nothing in common with the person you were set up with.
