When I went into The Vintage Cellar to pick out wines for our tasting, I basically blindly picked some reds and whites that were fairly cheap. I have never really found myself to like red wines, but I actually liked this Shiraz a whole lot. The Black Opal Shiraz, from the south eastern region of Austrailia, 2011, pointed to tastes of plum. I felt I could pick that out a bit, along with a citrus sort of taste. Typically made with Syrah grapes, this Shiraz sold for around $5.95. At first, thinking it smelled absolutely disgusting, I really liked the taste. I now have a new favorite red wine! Though I didn't try this with food, I feel like it would be really good with fish.
