Jim Barry Lodge Hill Shiraz

[anacostiakat]

Grabbed a couple bottles on the recommendation of a friend from my local beverage store. At about eighteen bucks USD.

As I am sipping my first glass I think this is a fantastic buy for the price. Nice amount of body and I love the cherry overtones.

It is matching up quite well with the '98 Punch Churchill I have paired it with. Pizza has been ordered and we are having the first snow of the season here tonight.

And for chuckles our asshat mayor is giving another of his pr spots on the local news. This guy even has to give the weather preperations for the city. What a soundbite hog.

I would recommend this one for those of you who have not had it or want to get into a good value IMHO.
