What I found interesting was that even the Argentinean, with their hot climate, are moving away from the Aussie-labeling and joining other regions in giving the rightful name of the grape: Syrah. This bottle was created when Shiraz was still all the rage and it&#8217;s always fun to go back and taste these to see where they are and where they are heading.&nbsp; The nose starts off spicy and woodsy, but adds a little vanilla and cassis into the mix with time in glass; the palate shows more complexity than the nose lets on, sure there was a heavy presence of wood but also blackberry, cassis, vanilla and spice.
