Wyndham estate bin 555 shiraz review
Malcolm Lamont - WSET Adv, CSW rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Ruby rim on this southern hemisphere 2010, with plum, cherry, and a rather generic spice coming through subtly on the nose. Nice jammy fruits, specifically strawberry on the palate. Well rounded tannins and body for a 14.3%

Wyndham estate bin 555 shiraz review
Peter rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

I found this wine to be solid with deep plum and strawberry flavors with some pepper and black licorice. It is smooth and balanced, really too much so. It lacks the complexity and bright cherry flavor and sharper acidity I look for in a good Australian Shiraz.

It is a great value and if you like medium-bodied Shiraz you may enjoy it. I just did not find it interesting at all.

This is one straightforward, easy-drinking Shiraz; its raspberry and plum fruit is bouncy and ripe. It's got a little sweetness on the palate as well; mouthfeel has fine, powdery tannins that show again on the finish.

What Is Blind Tasting?

All tastings reported in the Buying Guide are performed blind. Typically, products are tasted in peer-group flights of from 5-8 samples. Reviewers may know general information about a flight to provide context—vintage, variety or appellation—but never the producer or retail price of any given selection. When possible, products considered flawed or uncustomary are retasted.

Wyndham estate is one of the pioneers of the commercial wine industry of Australia and in this wine they have produced another unmistakable wine.

In the glass it is deep crimson red with vibrant purple hues. The nose reveals spicy plum, black pepper, cloves and chocolate aromas supported by subtle vanillin oak.

A terrific, full-bodied Australian red wine made from the country's iconic grape Shiraz. Aromas of fleshy ripe black plums and blackberries with toasty oak. Supple, smooth texture. Pair with grilled meats.

Shiraz food pairings: hamburgers, roast meats, pizza, cheddar cheese, hamburgers.

Jon Steeves - Sommelier rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

A commercial style Australian Shiraz, crowd pleasing juicy, jammy red and blackberry fruit. Finishes with a spicy note and leaves you wanting more. Pairs well with BBQ gourmet beef burgers and drinking well on its own. Tasted 2016 vintage in March 2018. Decanted 1h. 88 points

Shiraz wine has something to offer for every wine lover's palate. Its rich, complex flavors and age-worthiness make it a great investment wine as well.
