Variety: Shiraz

Syrah or Shiraz is a dark-skinned grape grown throughout the world and used primarily to produce powerful red wines. Whether sold as Syrah or Shiraz, these wines enjoy great popularity.

Typical aromas and flavors from most Syrah-based wines include pepper, blackberry and leather or smoke. Shiraz is even affected by growing temperature - warmer climates bring out the mellower flavors of plum, while cooler temperatures spice up the wine. Shiraz also can be made in a fruity style, which many "sweet" wine drinkers enjoy. It can also be made in a dry style.
