In March we are tasting Shiraz as the Aussies call it, traditionally this would be known as Syrah. For this tasting however we are going to focus on Australia with one value outlier from California. So we have had one of the coldest winters on record here, and Shiraz is a great red wine to warm up a cold winter night. So what is the temp going to be today? Try 70 degrees and sunshine! Pair it with a little meatloaf and roasted garlic mashed potatoes and spring will be here soon. So here are the wines we are going to taste in March. Prices are approximate.
