Shiraz facts
What kind of wine is Shiraz?
Shiraz is a bold, rich red wine known for its juicy dark fruit flavours like blackberry and plum, along with hints of spice, pepper, and sometimes even smoky or savoury notes. It’s a wine that packs a punch with a smooth finish, making it a go-to for anyone who loves big, flavorful reds. Whether you're looking for something to cosy up with on a cold night or to elevate your barbecue game, Shiraz is your wine.
Where is Shiraz red wine made?
While Shiraz originally hails from France (where it’s called Syrah), it’s become a superstar in Australia. In fact, Australia is famous for crafting some of the world’s most iconic Shiraz wines, particularly from regions like Barossa Valley and McLaren Vale. You’ll also find great Shiraz red wine in South Africa, the USA, and even Spain. Each region gives Shiraz its own unique twist, so there’s always something new to discover.
How should I serve Shiraz wine?
Shiraz shines best at a slightly cooler room temperature, around 60-65°F. Put it in the fridge for about 20-30 minutes before serving to hit that sweet spot. And don’t be afraid to let it breathe. Decanting your Shiraz for about 30 minutes will really allow those rich, bold flavours to open up and sing in your glass.
What kind of food goes well with Shiraz red wine?
Shiraz is a food-friendly powerhouse that loves bold flavours. It’s perfect with grilled meats like steak, lamb, or smoky barbecue ribs. It also pairs beautifully with hearty dishes like stews, sausages, or a rich beef chili. If you’re a cheese fan, go for aged cheddar or gouda. The wine’s dark fruit and spicy notes also play well with dishes that have a bit of spice or sweetness – think pulled pork with a tangy sauce or even spicy sausages.
