The Board is running an Aussie promotion but I want to tell you about a wine that’s not on the feature tables. This is probably a good time to admit that I drink less Aussie Shiraz than everyone else in Canada. Too sweet, too dense and just too obvious. But I’ve just tasted one that going on my summer shopping list.
What I like about Deakin Shiraz is the brightness and the refreshment. There’s a little Beaujolais spirit giving it a fun, lighthearted feeling. An invitation to gulp. Could be the hit red of the BBQ season.

Yippee!! I’ll be nabbing one of these for the cottage this weekend. Fire up the grill and grab the guitar…
Thanks for the heads up, Billy.
