[wine] Painted Turtle Shiraz


Wine: Painted Turtle Shiraz
Varietal: Shiraz
Winemaker: Painted Turtle Cellars

Winemaker's Notes:
As job descriptions go, the painted turtle's is tough to beat:"Bask in the sun. Hang out with friends. Look for food." Painted Turtle wines are made in the same spirit of simple pleasure. The turtles may be partial to insects and aquatic plants, but they won't mind if you substitute your favourite foods! With vibrant cassis, black cherry and plum flavours, this spicy Shiraz pairs well with pork chops, sausages, burgers, grilled chicken, and barbecued salmon. Enjoy it at home, with friends, or while basking in the sun!

其實應該要多愛BC酒一點的..
我不喜歡小烏龜原因,應該不只是因為喝不慣Shiraz。小烏龜有一點腥味,而且有點辣,我不喜歡辣辣的紅酒,可能有人喜歡啦...這是個人偏好。小烏龜很便宜,只要九塊多,好運氣打折還可以買到八塊多的,可是打折的酒很多,也不一定要小烏龜...我小時候養過好多次小烏龜,養到出國前家裡還有兩隻已經長到巴掌大的小烏龜,可是小烏龜酒...i'm sorry, little turtle...
