Possums Vineyard Shiraz 2003 (Australia)

Price - $29.99 Size - 750 mL- Wines of the World Wine Tasting held on Saturday April 16, 2005 at the Powers Liquor Mart in Colorado Springs.

This wine is a very deep red color. It has heavy legs (15% Alcohol!) and is a little astringent in the nose. This has excellent fruit and great depth and is full bodied. Has a good finish. Another excellent wine, the small difference in score between this and the Cuvee Simone is this doesn't have quite as long a finish. Grade: Between A and A+
