Stage Door Wine Co 2016 

Shiraz (Eden Valley)

This wine looks like tar save the miniscule, Kalamata olive-colored rim. Aromas of sweet cherry cola and grated coconut dominate the nose. The attack is soft and creamy and the palate is muddled in its generous, ripe fruit character, offering a flavor of berry fruit cobbler generously dosed with baking spice and anise. The acidity is mild, giving the wine a rather cloying feel on the sticky, if noticeably lingering, finish. Drink now–2020.
