Wolf Blass Silver Collection

I have just spent a pleasant weekend trying Wolf Blass Silver Label Collection Shiraz Cabernet wine. Although Chris is the main red wine drinker, I do like to drink it  with red meat so a perfect opportunity also  to get some lamb loin chops on Saturday and leave Chris sulking he would not get the full bottle to himself.

I am not going to say anymore than my limited wine vocabulary will allow, but I can say, I found it to be heavy, in a rich full bodied heaviness. I could taste cocoa and blackcurrants, a wine buff will tell you maybe that I didn't but that's what I got from my taste buds.

Its very smooth and spicy if that makes sense, its smooth to swish around my tongue but has a spice aftertaste.

I liked it, it has great deep flavour and I found it easy to drink, I will definitely be looking out for more, but I handed over the rest of the bottle to a relieved husband as I had more wine to review.

Wolf Blass Silver Label Shiraz Cabernet 2008

Fleshy plum fruit and spice delivered from the Shiraz and dark berries from the Sauvignon delivers a length and structure that creates a seamless wine from start to finish. Complemented with spicy, savoury oak and finished with finely textured tannins this would be a perfect match with rich red meat dishes.

Wolf Blass Silver Label Chardonnay 2009

Fresh citrus and stone fruit notes are supported by subtle creamy oak and a crisp refreshing finish. Bright and lively citrus acidity is cleansing on the palate while providing line and length of flavour, this will compliment meaty white fish or lighter chicken dishes.
