Pure Syrah is rarely found solo in the wines of the Languedoc-Roussillon; it's usually reserved for the pricy reds of the northern Rhône. From a small family domaine and vineyards close to Corbières, this has dark, smoky black fruit and spice.
Viña Falernia is a first class winery in Chile’s high Elqui Valley. It put the region on the map in 2005 by winning a Trophy for its inaugural Syrah. The beautifully smooth, rich 2016 Gran Reserva is a must for any fan of serious, oak-aged Syrah.
A modern take on a great tradition of Languedoc wines. A sort of Nouveau of the south, but with more fruit and heft. Silky smooth, it's pure Syrah from a top château in Corbières, vinified like a white and bottled very young to be gorgeously fruity.
There's plenty of noise about New Zealand's great whites, but don't forget the reds. Syrah is a star in North Island's Hawke's Bay, shining here in this dark, supple red. From a family estate, this is a vibrant, silky cherry and violet-scented Syrah.

A new addition to Sam Trimboli’s multi-award-winning list of wines. Inspired by a famous bushranger who stepped into folklore. Mostly Shiraz, it’s bursting with juicy bramble fruits and smoky spice. Bold and moreish.
