De Bortoli Deen de Bortoli Vat 8 Shiraz 2010

De Bortoli Deen de Bortoli Vat 8 Shiraz 2010

The 2009 versiopn of this wine was very good value but this years is a little better. The medium bodied flavour profile starts with plums before moving to blackberries, chocolate pastilles and ending with spice. While there is only a nudge of drying tannins it is balanced by a kick of acidity and only a light wind of oak. A good wine that will please a lot of punters. Have a box stashed in the pantry so if you have unexpected guests you have something good to serve.
