What to Expect

Australia has certainly made Syrah its own, even bestowing it with a new name: Shiraz. In the warm, dry climate of Australia this noble grape, responsible for some of the grandest wines of France, produces an intense, unique expression that is distinctly Australian. The ripe grapes take on classic notes of black pepper and leather that add depth and complexity to the black cherry and plum fruits on the palate. Australian Shiraz has typically been aged in American Oak barrels which impart the wine with a distinct note of vanilla that can add to the impression of ripeness many of these wines have, but the time in barrel also allows the wines a chance to settle and reveal their rich, voluptuously styled mouthfeel.

Region: Australia
By Josh Raynolds
Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar, Jul/Aug 05
Medium ruby. Bitter cherry, boysenberry, cassis, licorice and vanillin oak spice on the nose. Thick, velvety and suave, with spicy flavors of cherry, plum, fruitcake and mocha. The supple, gently tannic finish emphasizes sweet dark berry, roasted coffee and oak spice flavors. 90 points

Dark, dense and powerful, juicy with ripe cherry, blackberry and tar flavors, hinting at exotic spice as the flavors persist on the muscular finish. Drink now through 2015.(WS)
