Mattie's Perch

General

Shiraz

Label

The label states this is from South Eastern Australia. There is a brief note on the back label stating:

Mattie says, "Ripper Shiraz! (Great)" This Shiraz delivers fresh blackberry flavors with a touch of caramel which is exactly what you would expect from Down Under. Pair this Shiraz with your favorite pastas or meats on the barbie.

Taste

A swish shows some amount of ribboning, which means a decent amount of alcohol. The bouquet has a hint of the blackberries that the label on the bottle mentions.

The initial taste is that of blackberries, but afterward there is really nothing. This is not really a dry wine, and has some sweetness to it, but the after effects are just... lacking.
