The Watcher 2008 Shiraz: Review


Fetish Wines
Australia
14.5% abv
Under 20 bucks

Appearance: deep purple, almost black body with a purple rim

Aroma: mix berries and a soft spice box nose

Flavors: juicy berries that remind me of mulberry, black plum, and mixed currants.  There are notes that make me think of milk chocolate, spice box, and a soil earthy tone. 

Mouthfeel: juicy berries, soft feel (in a good way), lingering berries, not as spicy as a Shiraz could be stereotyped as. 

My Strength Rating: 4.5 - Medium body overall.

To the Point: the main focus of this wine is on the berries.  Overall, a very tasty Shiraz.  I would buy again.
