2009 Two (both) Hands Angel's Share Shiraz

I was mucking about on Cellar Tracker and came across this wine. From 19 tasting notes came an average score of 91 (outstanding) and for $20, definitely worth a look. I find cellar tracker averages to be reliable but not this time around. This is just a $20 wine that is reasonable value. Not much going on and would appeal to the non-drinkers amongst us. Plenty of alcohol heat, it's big, fruity and jammy. The palate is quite well balanced, ticks the boxes but don't expect to be challenged. Our score 86 (very good+) and did get better with more time out of the bottle. Buy again - Probably not. Get a Teusner Riebke instead.
