Wirra Wirra has launched a promotional campaign to coincide with the release of two wines from its 'Scrubby Rise' range. You can read more about the campaign online, but the basic premise is you take a 'selfie' (yoof speak for: "take a photo of one's self") and in return you could wine a trip to London.
Well, I'm happy to pimp myself for such a chance - even though I suspect I am not eligible given I would be classified as "media". Both wines were supplied as samples for review.
I've previously written about the 'White' here, now it's the turn of the red.
A mix of Shiraz, Cabernet and Petit Verdot. Opens with plum, cedar and a little sweetness that one could describe as cola-cube. The palate displays a plushness; it's soft, easy-going with a mix of black and red fruits on offer. Adding to this is a little savoury weight by way of tapenade.
In the main though, i'd consider it juicy, pretty more-ish and definitely a wine for now. At this price point you'd certainly be happy. 89
