Nice to see someone gave you some cabernet to balance out the shiraz. ;-)

6 * 07 Kalleske Clarry's


I tasted this at an instore a couple of weeks back - such a lovely drink.


Yeah, a friend brought one of these around and I was so impressed I went straight out and bought six. They have been on special at a major chain but you could probably get them here too, thinking about it.

Bloody delicious! There's a tasting note on one of the sunday posts a couple of weeks back.


Agreed. Had one of these last night, very fresh, lifted, more-ish wine. I want more, I think.

Nayan,

It is the red - Grenache Shiraz blend, I believe.
