2007 Goats do Roam Goat-Roti Syrah Viognier

A rich, full bodied South African red (mostly) that's just loaded with spice; this Syrah blend with 4% Viognier is reminiscent of the spicy Shiraz you typically find from Australia.  I like it for $13.89 at Costco, and especially if it's paired with something spicy.

The peppery spice starts right on the nose, almost jumping out of the glass, but it leads into nice dark fruit flavors and a rather abrupt but very pleasant finish.

Overall, a fun bottle if you haven't tried any of the South African wines.  Look for Pinotage from there too.
