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.

Reviews Add a Review
The colour of the Faith is deep crimson with a light purple hue. It has lively fresh berry fruit with hints of violets. The palate is well balanced and full-bodied with generous fruit and rich undertones of Indian spice. This wine pairs well with pasta, well aged Scotch fillet, game such as pheasant or quail and mature cheese.
