Metala 2008 Cabernet Shiraz


Saw this at Vintage Cellars - 2 for $22. If you see that, grab as many as you can easily afford. This might never happen again. Dan is doing that same for $10.98, but that's all you get. With Vintage Cellars, you get a Cellar Share (worth $25 now a days) when you buy 6 of these babies.

Now the real thing, the taste: very good. Not as bold as some of the Penfolds reserve releases you can find for a decent price right now, which, in my case, is better. I like my reds to be elegant. Classy in taste, not in price or look. So, yes, I found this to be a great wine. Goes down well without food. Add a bit lamb meatball to it and its a treat.
Borderline subtle, not very spicy at all, this is a wine that anyone can enjoy.
