Treasure Find in a Shiraz

Jakes Fault WineThe thing I most love about Trader Joe’s is the hunt for treasure in the wine isle. I found a real treasure there last weekend and the irony is that I went to Trader Joe’s specifically because I saw this wine advertised in their mailer. It’s called Jakes Fault and it’s a 2005 Shiraz.

Jakes Fault 2005 Shiraz
Price: $4.99
Where to Buy: Trader Joe’s

It’s a local Geyserville California wine and as the bottle says, it’s “rich, juicy and full of flavor”. I would also add that it is one of the smoothest of this type of wine that I’ve ever had. It has great color and a soft nose but the pallet is full of fruit. At $4.99 a bottle, I’m heading out to get a case!

Just tried Jake’s Fault Shiraz (the 2004 vintage) and liked it quite a bit - a nice mix of juicy fruit and peppery spice.
