Shiraz, known as Syrah elsewhere, is the Aussie take on this grape. Despite the confusion, it's interesting that New World wine regions haven't renamed it to suit its French origins. This bottle, with vibrant red grapes from Southeast Australia, pairs perfectly with Cannelloni or stands alone splendidly. It's a fantastic value, so grab some while you can! Think plums diving into a berry pit, wrapped in oak, vanilla, and black pepper.
This Shiraz is perfect with beef stew, lamb chops, or mushroom risotto. Its rich flavors complement these dishes, while its robust structure holds up well. For a contrast, try it with dark chocolate or aged cheddar.
