This variety is associated with two key regions, the Rhone Valley in France and now also as New World Shiraz from Australia. In both cases it is recognised for its great and opulent wines, vigorous, with good body, good quality tannins and colour, a characteristic aroma (violets, cassis and a slight smoky quality, with good ageing potential. In Chile we produce Cordillera with this grape.
The grape may be descended from an original variety in Persia. One
should not mistake it with Petit Syrah, which has no relation other
than in name. |
