2008 Marquis Phillips Shiraz

This is from McLaren Vale and is 16% abv, topped with a screwcap.
c- inky dark purple, very concentrated.
a- dark fruit, oak, leather, pepper, tobacco.
f- softer than expected. In addition to the nose, chocolate comes out a bit later. Full bodied with a medium long finish. Not alot of dimension to it, but I probably paid less than 15, so I would say it is at a good price point. Would go great with anything from the grill! 89.
