Tasting - Barefoot California Shiraz

Name: Barefoot Shiraz
Variety: Shiraz
Region: California
Country: USA
Year: none listed on bottle
Price: $6

Winery Review: Barefoot Shiraz has deep breaths of lavender cut in front of dark berry and mocha flavors. A vanilla finish makes sure that it really is love at first sip.

My Review: On the nose, this wine is extremely floral and when swirling lots of lavender comes through. In my opinion this wine smelled better than it tasted, lots of blackberry came through on the palate but unfortunately a lot of black pepper did as well. I felt the spice over powered the floral fruits and threw off the balance. I drank this alone without food.
