Wine Review - Trappers Gully Shiraz 2003 - Buy Australian Wine Online

Yesterday I went out for a lunch with two good friends of mine. As an exercise I brought the Shiraz from Trappers Gully to prove the label. The label describes the Shiraz with a intense aroma of black pepper and blackberry flavour. For me, as an absolute beginner in tasting wines and actually tasting and describing the difference, this was quite a challenge.

We had this wine with Thai food, which was a good choice. The first sensation in the mouth appeared to us as a heavy, but smooth body in which the blackberry flavour was embedded. However, it was not too heavy and went very well with the asian food (incl. chili). The black pepper aroma arose at the back of the tongue, just after swallowing and before the dryness settled in our mouths as a cherry on the top-finish.

Kindest regards,
