VC Tasting: Dona Sol Shiraz, Petite Syrah, and Symphony

Dona Sol
Shiraz, Petite Syrah, and Symphony
$7
California, U.S.A.

Shop Review: Shiraz has a unique jammy fruit character that is well represented in the Sweet Red. Both on the nose and on the palate, jammy fruit, like strawberries, cherry pie and red licorice, entices the senses and pair well with cheeses and desserts.


My Review: Interestingly, I couldn't detect any bouquet on the nose because the wine was so closed. On the palate, it tasted very sweet and sugary with hints of raspberry. The heaviness of the sugar what the wine very heavy in the mouth, giving it a pretty full body.
