Shiraz

Shiraz Wine Details
Price:

Description: Intensely purple in color, this full-bodied wine releases lots of fruit and sweet smoke on the nose. The mouth filling flavors of ripe berries are balanced with dark spices and oak. Lingering pleasantly on the finish, this wine has plenty of youthful tannins, which are easy to drink now and for several years to come. Received Silver Awards from the following: San Diego National Wine Competition, Riverside International Wine Competition, West Coast Wine Competition, New World International Wine Competition.

Varietal Definition
Shiraz:
Alternate name for the french Syrah clone grape grown in Australia and responsible for very big red wines that are not quite as intense in flavor as the french Rhone versions.
