In this episode of Wine Pros on the Go, we're exploring one of the wine world's most legendary grapes: Syrah.
From the rugged hillsides of France's Northern Rhône Valley to the vineyards of Australia, California, South Africa, and beyond, Syrah is a grape of remarkable personality—capable of being powerful and bold, yet elegant and refined.
We'll uncover the history of this iconic variety, explore the regions that made it famous, and discover why sommeliers and wine lovers remain endlessly fascinated by its ability to express place. Along the way, we'll break down Syrah's signature flavors—from blackberry, plum, cracked pepper, and smoked meat to violets, olives, and savory spice—and reveal how climate and terroir shape every bottle.
We'll also share practical tips on serving, decanting, cellaring, and best food pairings with Syrah, whether you're enjoying a peppery Rhône classic, a rich Australian Shiraz, or a modern New World expression. Bold. Spicy. Complex. Timeless.
This is the story of Syrah—the Rhône Valley's greatest gift.
