I am a firm believer in being frugal when it comes to wine purchases. Since I'm currently unemployed, I have taken this to a whole new level. Anyways, I decided to try Penfolds Rawson's Retreat Shiraz Cabernet 2007 (+/- $10). I'm a huge fan of Australian wines, which probably stems from my junior year abroad in London where I was able to buy Australian and New Zealand wines at the Sainsburys. But I digress.
This wine, which has nuances of ripe berry, chocolate and spice, went down like a cold beer in a chilled glass. It doesn't have a thick aftertaste or anything, it's great and cheap. I'm nursing this bottle as well, but I'll probably be done with it by Sunday.
