Tasting notes of a local wine lover without elegant literacy or web design. Just plain wine talk. By the same token I analyze the opened bottle with my senses, just at the very end I re-check the producer (I first checked it when bought it for sure!),vintage,terroir,and price. These data allow me to reconstruct the wine and trace a botton line.

Callia Magna Terroir Selection, Shiraz 2010, From Tulum Valley a basic value
Callia Magna Shiraz 2010 (terroir selection) , By Bodegas Callia (Salentien Family), USD 10
www.bodegascallia.com
A shiraz from Tulum Valley in San Juan Province.
Nice and easy red with timid pushes of a tipical shiraz. Fruit driven with notes of spice without lossing the sweet caramel and marmalade. A couple of oak descriptors like chocolate and cinnamon. I woulnd´t go more than 86 points and cellar more than 2-3 years either. Barely a good value for the price/quality relation.
