Syrah vs. Shiraz: A tale of two terroirs. Syrah and Shiraz may be genetically the same grape, but their expressions are shaped profoundly by place, climate, and winemaking philosophy. This curated collection explores the fascinating contrast between the structured, savory Syrahs of the Old World and the bold, fruit-forward Shiraz of the New.

Start in the northern Rhône, where Syrah is all about elegance—think black pepper, violets, and earthy depth from storied appellations like Côte-Rôtie and Saint-Joseph. Then head south, far south, to Australia’s Barossa Valley and McLaren Vale, where Shiraz delivers a sun-drenched intensity full of ripe blackberry, spice, and smoky richness.

From cool-climate restraint to warm-climate power, this is a journey through terroir and technique, showing how a single grape can wear many faces. Whether you lean toward the poised structure of Syrah or the plush generosity of Shiraz, this is your chance to compare, contrast, and fall in love with both.
