Wine Review – 2005 Ironstone Vineyards Shiraz

2005-ironstone-vineyards-shirazFrom: 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”.
