Syrah is the must-have red accessory. Just as a garnet handbag, crimson scarf, or scarlet lips make an outfit sizzle, Syrah adds a dash of sex appeal to any meal. Peppery, smoky, and powerful, Syrah is exotic but approachable. Like wearing that splash of red, sipping Syrah is wildly fun. Store shelves are full of versions from Australia (where it's called Shiraz), France, California, Washington and even Chile. With styles ranging from plush to elegant and price tags from designer to discount, there's a bottle with your name on it!
We enjoyed a delightful evening at Lorraine's home sipping on several of these fine wines while sitting outside in the amazing weather. We enjoyed a starlit night full of good food, great wine and even greater company. Thanks for hosting, Lorraine!
Here are the wines we sampled for the evening:
1. Gumdale Reserve - 2007 Shiraz - Australia
2. Rapel Valley - Ona Awakena - 2007 Syrah - Chile
3. Buffalo Grove - Syrah - Vintage 2007 Syrah - Caliifornia
4. Michael Garnes - Les Piliers - 2006 Syrah - France
