Wine Review: The Lucky Duck Shiraz pours a rather dark purple with fairly strong aromas of blackberries and a hint of earth and coffee. You take a sip and get more of that sweet blackberry and some lingering jammy plum, with a decent acidity and a hint of spice in the finish. The tannins are actually fairly moderate which was surprising.
My Review: Medium to dark red in color. I smelled aromas of black cherry and blackberry. The taste is powerful upfront with a blast of dark berries and raspberries. It ended with a dry, modest finish and lingered briefly.
This wine was tasted with a pizza dinner. While eating the pizza I also drank some of the wine and noticed a big enhancement on the berry flavors.
