Shiraz -
Australian synonym
for Syrah, now also turning up on occasion in South Africa.
Syrah -
The classic Rhone
red grape allegedly brought back from Shiraz in Persia by the 14th-Century crusader Gaspard de
Sterimberg. Blended in Chateauneuf-du-Pape and standing alone in Hermitage, Cote-Rotie
and other Rhone reds, it makes tannic, age worthy wines easily identified by a
very characteristic floral black-pepper fragrance.

Heartland Shiraz
Origin: Australia

Points -Stephen Tanzer
“Deep
ruby. Vibrant, smoky raspberry and cherry preserve aromas
offer excellent clarity and are complemented by suave
mineral and floral notes. Focused red berry flavors possess
impressive energy and take on pepper and spice notes with
air. The spice notes build on the lightly tannic finish,
giving the sweet raspberry and cherry flavors a lively
quality. Outstanding value here. ”-Stephen Tanzer
