Raise a glass to International Syrah Day with Ultimate Winery Experiences Australia!

Australian Syrah, grown in cooler climates, produces elegant wines with floral aromas, peppery notes, and vibrant fruit flavours. Whilst Syrah and Shiraz are technically the same grape, Syrah usually presents a medium-full-bodied, more complex profile with higher acidity and softer tannins, while Australian Shiraz is known for its full-bodied, higher alcohol content, and fruit-forward profile.

Here's a selection of Syrahs from our Ultimate Winery Experiences Australia members. 

Montalto offers three distinctive Syrahs from the 2022 vintage. The Pennon Hill Syrah is a medium-bodied wine with red and blue fruit notes complemented by violet florals and subtle spices. The Single Vineyard 'Tuerong' Syrah presents flavours of blueberries, Kirsch, and blackberry, with hints of spices and minerality. The Montalto Syrah, sourced from warmer Tuerong vineyards, features mulberry, blackberry, and raspberry flavors, alongside olive tapenade and spice nuances. Each wine showcases unique characteristics, from vibrant fruit to savoury undertones, with fine tannins and a refreshing finish.
