Tasting- Fox Creek, Shiraz 2012

Name: Fox Creek
Variety: Shiraz
Region: McLaren ValeCountry: Australia
Year: 2012
Price: $9.95
Winery Review: "Aromas of chocolate cherries and cream interwoven with nutmeg, cinnamon and cloves. Rich front palate of mulberry, plums and black cherries lead into the creamy, vanilla mid palate which is complemented by hints of toast and dark chocolate. The youthful tannins complete the vibrant experience with an injection of fresh toasty oak on the finish." --Wine.com

My Personal Review: A rich red wine with hits of dark berries. Earthy and Woody tones were picked up possibly from the barrel. Would think dark chocolate would bring the berry tones out more. This is a full-bodied wine thats taste lingers for a while on the tongue. 

I tasted this wine on its own without food.
