SYRAH or SHIRAZ.... "Made in Greece"



      

The Syrah grape makes spicy, rich, darkly delicious wines. In Australia, it goes by the name Shiraz.
 

"Syrah" and "Shiraz"!! The grapes might go by different names, but they're actually the same fruit, making warm, welcoming wines.
 

Syrah loves the 'que. Try it with grilled burgers, ribs, or even grilled eggplant or portabella mushrooms. It also likes roasted duck, grilled sausages, chili, and cassoulet.

Tip
If you crave red wines with fish, try Syrah with grilled tuna or salmon.
 

The past 2 decades Syrah has been very successfully adapted in many regions of Greece.
 

We have picked some of the best Greek Syrahs for you to discover!

 

• Dougos Winery   - Meth'Ymon Syrah (Region of Thessaly)
• Manolesakis Estate Syrah (Region of Drama)
• Chateau Nico Lazaridi - Black Sheep Syrah (Region of Drama)
