Razor’s Edge, McLaren Vale (Australia) Shiraz 2008

Jan 19, 2011

By Michael Franz

 An indisputably delicious wine and a remarkable bargain, this features big but balanced notes of dark cherries and berries along with a red raspberry backnote.  There’s also a bit of spicy oak and a peppery bite in the finish, and all of these elements work very well together.  And if all of that were not hard enough to believe, the Shiraz – Grenache from Razor’s Edge is perhaps even better.
