You Say Shiraz, We Say Syrah

housewine2The cooler weather calls for full-bodied reds. This November we are warming up with Syrah. Elegant yet voluptuous, it is the Isabella Rossellini of grapes. Taste the story of Syrah as it unfolds from its original home in the Rhône Valley to its newfound digs in Australia, where it is known as Shiraz. There will be plenty of stops in between to explore Syrah’s diverse expressions like Chile, Argentina, California, South Africa, Italy and even BC. Are you ready to be seduced?
