Grenache
Best known in Southern Rhône, McLaren Vale, Provence
Warm, generous and full of red fruit. Raspberry, strawberry, spice and a soft, ripe texture. The heart of Châteauneuf-du-Pape and many rosés; in Spain the same grape is called Garnacha.

The grapes
Syrah
Best known in Northern Rhône, Washington State
A dark, spicy red grape. Blackberry, black pepper, smoked meat and violets, with firm structure. Elegant and savoury in the Northern Rhône, in places like Hermitage and Côte-Rôtie; in Australia the same grape goes by Shiraz.
Where it's from
Rhône Valley
France
Split in two by character. North: intense Syrah at Hermitage and Côte-Rôtie; floral Viognier at Condrieu. South: sun-soaked Grenache blends, Châteauneuf-du-Pape, rosé from Tavel. A region of contrasts and consistent brilliance.
