This grape is known as Syrah in France and the United States, but Shiraz in Australia. Syrah originated from northern Rhône. Syrah is the prince of the classic red wine grapes. It’s more powerful than Cabernet Sauvignon and worthy for cellaring. Wines made from Syrah are complex with an unique attractive aroma, quite powerfully flavoured and full-bodied.
