Shaw & Smith Adelaide Hills Shiraz 2004
A lush and ponderous nose gives way to dense, wild, black raspberries and finishes with flowery, crushed violets. The fruit expression was more red than I had expected but the intensity and focus more than made up for any initial disappointment. Great with steaks, grilled meats and chocolate cake.

I recently had the pleasure of enjoying the R & B Swingsville Red Zinfandel 2006. Talk about music to the pallet! Produced from some of the finest Zinfandel vineyards in California, this full-bodied, rich wine had cherry, blackberry and jam. Although a good steak or ribs would be my pairing of choice with this wine, the Swingsville provided the perfect amount of spice to go with any type of meal. However it’s versatile and just as good as a solo act. Pure harmony! So next time you are looking for a great value, full bodied, good with most meals, Red Zinfandel, plug into the R & B Swingsville. Until the next bottle, happy sipping!
