Top Australian
Shiraz tasting
Shiraz is Australia's highest profile wine style, and arguably its best red wine. It is the most widely grown red grape variety, grown in almost all regions, and gives us some of Australia’s most famous wines - Grange and Henschke Hill of Grace amongst others.
There are basically four styles of Australian Shiraz: The black pepper/spice Rhone Valley style of Central and Southern Victoria, north of Melbourne; the lush, concentrated, dense wines of the Barossa Valley northwest of Adelaide, exemplified by Penfold's Grange; the smooth, red cherry and mint style of Coonawarra and Clare Valley, both near the coast in the vicinity of Adelaide; and the earthy, velvety reds of the Hunter Valley in New South Wales, northwest of Sydney.
Deciding which Australian Shiraz is the best is a daunting task, with so many high quality wines to choose from. Nevertheless, we have selected six of Australia's most extraordinary Shiraz to be tasted in our showroom on Saturday 17th December. Join us and choose your favourite!
