Dan Akroyd 2006 Cabernet Shiraz
The best outing yet from Blues Brother Dan Aykroyd, but we still expect better from the next vintage. The 25 per cent shiraz in the blend really helps fill out cabernet’s raspberry and greenness with smoke and spice. It’s mid-weight, lively and a touch sour. Tannin is toned down; loads of spice on the finish. LCBO 74062
