Chateau/Producer: | Penfold's | Wine Name: | Konooga Hill Shiraz-Cabernet | Country: | Australia | Wine Score: | 90 | Notes: | Nose of tar and dark fruits; not very tannic so this wine will probably not last long in storage, but a wonderful wine to drink in the short term. It makes me wonder how magnificent this wine would be in some new French oak. | Tasting Date: | 2010-04-15 | Varietal: | Shiraz Cabernet |
Chateau/Producer: | Duplin | Wine Name: | Black River Red | Country: | United States | State: | N.C. | Region: | Eastern, N.C. | Wine Score: | 85 | Notes: | A sweet wine that blends Muscadine and Catawba grapes. The color is of dark rose. I am not knowledgable about wines overall. The taste is sweet,but not to sweet. It can be sipped alone without any problem. I would suggest that on varieties of wine on this site that Muscadine and Scuppernong be added. These grapes grow only in a limited area,but to me produce a delious sipping wine. | Tasting Date: | 2009-04-25 | Varietal: | Muscadine | Production Notes: | No further information that I know. | Additional Notes: | Duplin Wine Cellars is located in Duplin County, N.C. I often eat sharp chedar cheese with this wine. Also, chicken would go well with the wine. I think this wine is great by itself. Or, I do not see any reason that this wine would not complement any type of food. | Source: | Lowe's Food www.duplinwinery.com 800-774-9634 |
