"the one that didn't get away"
following our Il Briccone disaster, we felt challenged to continue with a serve of red with the marinara. Still craving an international flavour, I rummaged through the racks and produced a bottle of Tarapaca Syrah from Chile.
This Shiraz is very different to the typical Australian style. While there were loads of blackberries, cinnamon and briar in this wine, there were also a very typical Chilean flavour of herbs, earth and medicinal characteristics which finished with the slightest touch of sweetness.
This wine is exclusive to Australia Wine Society and costs around AUD12.00. We also tried the Cabernet Sauvignon at a different occassion but weren't fans of it. Buy the Syrah instead.
