Box Stallion Shiraz


Date: 28th March, 2011
Who: Chambo
What: 2006 Box Stallion Shiraz, Mornington Peninsula
Purchased: cellar door, $30
Food: home made souva, Monday night
Comments: Quite enjoyed it, particularly after it opened up a bit. Both fruity and savoury on the nose.  Lots of pepper and forest fruits and good length.  Does it get a touch sweet?  Maybe, but enough savoury to keep it in check.  Good stuff - kind of a high end quaffer, if that makes any sense.  Bought enough to put in the cellar so will be interested to see the next couple of years.
