Shiraz – one variety, two styles

Furthermore Syrah is rich of tannins and has a dry and smokey aftertaste. In the New World the grape is mostly known as Shiraz. Although it is the same grape variety it differs much from the french variety. In Australia the variety yields one of the most intensive red wines of the contry and is known for mature and strong wine.
