Tasting - Sideshow: No. 3 The Charmer Shiraz

Sideshow Shiraz
Name: Sideshow: No. 3 The Charmer
Variety: Shiraz
Region: South Eastern Australia
Country: Australia

Year: 2017
Price: $5.99

Wine Review: "Boysenberries and tea on nose. Attack is unripe dark fruit. Hollow mid. Finish is bitter with hints of cocoa and spice. I gave this one an extra half star for price point." 3.5 stars (Robert Wright; vivino.com)

My Review: This wine was a deep strawberry color.  It smelled of a peppery jam and blackberries.  It tasted peppery, spicy, tannic, and like raspberries.  It had a mild astringent taste, but a stronger astringent aftertaste that was still very yummy.  I really enjoyed this wine.  I'm shocked that it was less than $6.
