Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Bold and grapy on the nose, this wine delivers plenty of blackberry and grape flavors, just touched with vanilla. It's jammy and almost sweet-tasting, but satisfies the fruit itch. Drink now.

Little Penguin Cabernet Sauvignon - 2005

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Smells and tastes like a confection: aromas are sweet and marshmallowy, and fruit on the palate is sfot, sweet and candied. Will please wine newbies, but may be too simple for others.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
The dominant aroma here is raspberry, which is followed up on the palate by some sweet, concentrated berry fruit. A good casual quaffer.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
The first edition of Southcorp’s new brand yields is a nice, easily likeable Chard. Aromas are light, like talc powder or baking flour, mixed with a few golden apples. The feel is soft and fresh, with soft peach and apple flavors and a juicy finish.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Nose shows light meaty, smoky aromas, and the palate offes up a soft-and-easy feel and plenty of mixed berry fruit. A safe, straightfoward, please-almost-everyone Shiraz.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Blackberry and plum aromas have mochalike accents, and it tastes just as it smells. A streak of mint saves this wine from being too cloying, but on the sweet side it certainly is. Will probably appeal most to newer wine drinkers.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Smells as rosy and pink as it looks. Just slightly off dry, this Shiraz tastes like flowers and peaches. Drink this quaff on the patio. Imported by Southcorp Wines.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Herbal, leafy aromas and flavors call to mind tomatoes and beet greens despite a pleasantly round, supple mouthfeel.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Blooms with vibrant peach and nectarine notes on the nose, which persist in the mouth. The palate also has a slightly honeyed, or gingery character. Soft and slightly sweet, and just the thing for your next big gig. 200,000 cases produced. Imported by Southcorp Wines.

Smells like flowers and ripe berries, and the palate delivers berry and maple flavors. One-dimensional, but will satisfy those who like forward, sweetish wines.
