Red/Brown. Not especially opaque. Looks as though it will be light. Pepper. Light smell of black cherries. Hint of oak. . Little berries, bitter. It improves slightly after about 30mins. The fruits start to come out. short, bitter, aftertaste of tanins. Otherwise reasonably rounded. It's OK for less than 5 Euros, but it once again shows that you really need to pay more for a decent Australian Shiraz.
