2007 Roogle Shiraz

Long time no post :)

For ten dollars you would normally expect to get plonk that was not worth your time. But Marquis Phillips know what they are doing, even at this price point.

I won’t accuse it of being the smoothest wine out there, but it balances the alcohol and sugar well with a nice rich taste that some would describe as jammy but I find delicious. Screw cap means that you can drink it at your leisure as well.

It might sound like a leap to compare it to Stella’s Garden, but you can tell it came from the same crazy people that made that stuff. Highly recommended – surprise somebody at a party or buy it to drink by yourself on friday night as Battlestar Galactica and Terminator rage away on the telly.
