REVIEW: 2005 Yellow Tail Shiraz

You can get this puppy at any grocery store in Southeastern Michigan. Usually $10-$11, but you'll see it on sale often at $6-$7.

This was the 3rd Shiraz I've had this week and it was by far the least impressive if you ask me. We had the Black Opal Shiraz (another cheap-o wine write up coming) first last night, and when I went to this, it just didn't hold up. Maybe it was a bad bottle or maybe a side by side actually demonstrated some of the weaknesses of this guy. All I know is from sip one I was like "hey, wait a second... this tastes... not so good". More red than purple colored, a bit weaker body, flavor held up longer on the finish.

Swigs: 2.5, Bang 1 (regular priced) or 2 (on sale)
