Syrah & Shiraz Red wine
A mighty, compelling and often meaty red wine that originated in the Rhone Valley of France. Syrah is the most famous wine grape in Australia, where it is known by its common name of Shiraz. Syrah or Shiraz is considered to be one of the great black grape varieties, because of its ability to produce dark, full-bodied, age-worthy wines. You can expect vibrant, fruit-forward flavours of blackberry and plums, with spicy, bitter coffee undertones.
