2008 Jacob’s Creek Reserve Barossa Shiraz

2008 Jacob’s Creek Reserve Barossa Shiraz

I had the pleasure of sampling several Jacob’s Creek Reserve wines at a recent tasting and the 2008 Jacob’s Creek Reserve Barossa Shiraz was among them.

In the glass, the wine is deep ruby and viscous.

On the nose, it features powerful plummy, spiced notes.

On the palate, the plummy nose carries over on this Australian Shiraz.  It’s a chewy big mouthful with tons of freshly ground pumpkin pie spices with a rich, slightly sweet long finish.

Perfect with braised meats.

Around $13.
