We are a little bit in love with this number. An organic Syrah that just oozes personality. On the nose it is ripe and alive with fresh blackcurrant and blueberry that sit alongside a faint herbal, almost seaweed character. Bundles of freshness in the mouth makes this Syrah an utter pleasure to drink. Textural, this is a wine that punches well above its weight.

Origin: The first recognised wines were made in the Rhône Valley and south-eastern France. Mainly Grown In: One of the world’s leading grapes, it is found in France, Australia, the USA, Argentina and South Africa. Key Facts: Shiraz (or Syrah) is a world-beater. Starting small in the southern reaches of France, it has spread to all corners of the world, and is known for producing some of the world’s great red wines, capable of perfume, power and persistence. Wines made and labelled as 'Shiraz' are luscious and fruity, loaded with plum, raisin and plenty of oaky richness. European, or cooler climate expressions are often labelled as and referred to as 'Syrah', these can be more savoury and tend towards flavours of olive, black cherry and pepper. Both are equally delicious, and are simply a matter of taste! Fun Fact: There’s a small town in Iran called Shiraz, where to some people the grape may have originally been grown as an eating grape!
