Syrah grape

The Syrah grape is known for producing bold and complex red wines. In fact, Syrah is the same grape as Shiraz, which is the name used in Australia and other parts of the world. But did you know that Syrah is also a key component in many Rhone-style blends? These blends, typically made in the Rhone Valley in France, often include Grenache, Mourvedre and other grape varieties, but Syrah is often the star of the show.

When it comes to Shiraz, Australian winemakers have really made a name for themselves with this variety. Shiraz from Australia is often full-bodied and fruit-forward, with notes of blackberry, plum and spice. But don't overlook Syrah-based wines from other regions, such as California, Washington and South Africa. These wines can be just as delicious and complex as their Australian counterparts and can offer a different flavor profile depending on the specific terroir and winemaking techniques used.

Syrah is used as a single variety or as a blend. After several years of strong planting, in 2004 Syrah was estimated to be the world's 7th most cultivated grape on 142,600 hectares (352,000 acres). It can be found almost all over the globe from France to New World wine regions like: Chile, South Africa, Hawke's Bay and Waiheke in New Zealand, California, Australia and Washington.  

Syrah/Shiraz Australia

Syrah, also known as Shiraz, is a grape variety that has been grown in many parts of the world. However, Australia has become known for producing some of the best Shiraz wines in the world. This is due to the exceptional winemakers in the country who have mastered the art of creating wines that are rich, complex and full of flavor. The climate in Australia is also ideal for growing Shiraz grapes, with warm summers and cool nights allowing the grapes to ripen slowly and develop their unique characteristics. In addition, the Rhone region of France is another area known for producing excellent Syrah wines. The region's terroir, which includes rocky soil, mistral winds and a warm Mediterranean climate, creates the perfect conditions for growing this grape variety. Both Australia and the Rhone region have a long history of producing high-quality Syrah wines and it's no wonder they are considered some of the best in the world.  

Syrah and food

When it comes to food pairing, Syrah is a great choice because it has a bold flavor that can withstand strong flavors in food. The wine's tannins help cut through the richness of fatty meats, while its acidity helps balance spicy dishes. If you're looking for a wine to pair with a hearty beef stew or grilled steak, Syrah is a great choice. If you're interested in exploring the world of Syrah/Shiraz wines, there are plenty of options to choose from. You can start with a classic Rhone Valley Syrah, or try a Shiraz from Australia's Barossa Valley. Whichever region you choose, you're sure to find a wine that's rich, complex and delicious
