Wine Review – 2005 Ironstone Vineyards Shiraz
From: California
Price: $8.99
I love trying new wines, and the fact that this wine was an American-made Shiraz priced under $10, it really sparked my curiosity.
I was expecting and hoping for a great inexpensive American-style Shiraz that possessed some or all of that great Australian big ripe fruit and spice flavor to which I have become accustomed. Unfortunately, the 2005 Ironstone Vineyards Shiraz fell short of meeting my expectations. This Shiraz is rather watery and had little to no spice to it. A pepperoni and sausage pizza couldn’t even breathe some excitement into this American Shiraz. It was just ok to me.
I give the 2005 Ironstone Vineyards Shiraz 2 Stars. At $8.99 a bottle, you’ve got several better choices “Down Under”.
