Shiraz is possibly one of the most well known red wine varietals globally and is known as Syrah in most parts of the world except Australia and South Africa. It was one of the original varieties brought into Australia with vineyards dating back to 1843. Australia has the world’s oldest Shiraz vines still in production at Langmeil’s Freedom Vineyard in Barossa Valley.
The varietal is grown in all wine-producing regions and has shown itself adaptable to cool regions and moderate and warm areas. This diversity creates wines from medium to full-bodied with various flavour profiles and structures depending on region, climate and wine-making techniques.
Whilst Syrah and Shiraz are the same from a grape perspective, you will see both expressed in Australia as different styles. Winemakers in cooler-climates often produce and label their wines Syrah as they are more European in style with a more savoury or white pepper character. With this, you will see more Syrah varietals in cooler regions such as Yarra Valley and Tasmania, with cooler climates producing more red fruit notes like red plum and red cherry and warmer climates exhibiting dark fruits like black cherry and fruit cake.
In contrast, in regions like the Barossa Valley and McLaren Vale, warmer climate Shiraz is much bolder with lush dark fruit and rich flavour and texture and often more black pepper than white.
