So, forgot to report back on the bottle of wine. It was really really good. We both enjoyed it a ton. I expected it to be a bit more of a fruitbomb, but it was a bit reserved - not typical of a new world Shiraz. But I looked at the region - and my suspicions were correct - it comes from a colder climate. That explains the fruit being a bit less explosive and the higher tannins. Surprisingly, I think this wine could age a bit. I'm going to pick up a couple more just to have around for impromptu nicer dinners that could use a biggie wine.
It was spectac with the beef dips. Ohhhhhhhh, those beef dips. My current obsession.
Shelby's too. So on Friday, he's making ME dinner! yay!
