Vino Bitches: Wine Men of Gotham Shiraz Grenache

Liquor Depot
$15.99

Let’s be honest, at this point in the semester the only thing catching your attention when perusing the nearest liquor store’s wine aisle, is the label. Long gone is your selective process between a New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc and an Italian Merlot. Replacing it is a simpler method of wine selection, allowing you to ignore every childhood lesson and embrace the idea of judging a book by its cover. Maybe you ask yourself a series of questions as you select the best candidate like “How badass is the label?” “Is it colorful?” “Would I turn it into a sticker for my laptop?” Whatever your set of questions may be, this time I’ve even made the selection for you. So sit back, drink up, and let me tell you about one of my new favourites, Wine Men of Gotham Shiraz Grenache.

Sometimes, wines don’t live up to their glorified labels, but this is not the case for the Australian  Shiraz. This wine is everything it should be: full-bodied for my fellow red wine lovers, yet rich in blackberry and fruit flavours that we all seem to crave. The comical caricature of three moustached men found on the bottle’s label is sure to add some humour to your evenings of schoolwork as you finish off the bottle in this dreaded period of final exams and lengthy term-paper writing. At such an affordable rate, the Wine Men of Gotham’s Shiraz Grenache is one of many coping mechanisms needed as we push through the dreaded last weeks of the semester.
