 Durif Grape Variety - Cellarnotes.net
Durif wines are almost always better when served with foods such as roast beef, stews and full-flavored, mature cheeses rather than as a cocktail wine.
Although Durif is the true, original name of the grape, the BATF felt that long-term use of the name Petite Sirah as the name within the United States had made that name equally valid.
The wines made from Durif are usually firm, full flavored wines rich in tannin and often with an unexpected degree of acidity.

 * Durif - (Wine): Definition
Once thought to be related to the Syrah grape of the Rhone Valley in France, it is now known to be the grape Durif.
California red grape, probably the same as the Durif of the Rhone.
Other grapes known to be present in some Petite Syrah vineyards are the Mondeuse and Trousseau.

 Black is back - www.theage.com.au
Long-time Rutherglen durif devotee Colin Campbell, of Campbells Wines, believes the time is right for a crack at the grape variety, which has the oomph and spiciness of shiraz tinged with a darker, tannic, brooding Heathcliff-like intensity.
The wine showed all the intensity of a classic Rutherglen durif but with a lifted spiciness that provided a rare element of elegance to the grape.
And then there is the lone durif outpost of Gapsted Wines in the King Valley where winemaker Shayne Cunningham is persisting, against his instincts, I'm sure, in efforts to transform a warm-climate grape into an elegant cool-climate number from a 360-metre-high vineyard.

 Cool Climate Durif – You must be kidding!
Durif has been grown in the Rutherglen and Riverina areas of Australia for many years and has produced massive wines with great tannin structure, deep, deep colour and traditionally high alcohol levels ideally suited to long term cellaring.
A recent visit by my daughter Caroline (a winemaker at Leasingham Wines) to the Southern Rhone area found that Durif is still grown in small quantities to add colour and tannin to Rhone wines, but not declared as it falls outside the appellation controlee regulations.

 The Wine News Magazine - Petite Sirah -- Loving the other Rhône
Durif, who propagated grape clones for the wine industry, noticed that a new vine had been created quite fortuitously in his experimental vineyard as the result of the crossing of two grape varieties in his care.
While durif may have been mildew resistant, it never impressed the French with the wine it yielded, which accounts for the fact that today it is virtually nonexistent in France, hanging on in limited plantings in the Isère and Ardêche regions of the Rhône Valley and in Palette, a tiny appellation in Provence.
That the durif grape from France's Rhône Valley is petite sirah has been widely known in the California wine industry since at least the mid-1970s, after French ampelographers Pierre Galet and Paul Truel examined various California plantings and positively identified them as durif.

 Petite Sirah / Durif
The inability of Durif to produce distinguished, high quality wines in France effectively nullified the value of its mildew-free attribute, especially since the grape's compact clusters left this variety particularly susceptible to bunch rot.
A French nurseryman, Dr. François Durif, propagated the grape trying for resistance to powdery mildew and named it after himself, in the 1870s.
It was long theorized this was the case, that Petite Sirah was the same as the lackluster French variety known as Durif, a cross of Peloursin, yet another unremarkable variety, with the true Syrah.

Durif was found to produce small berries with saturated color, dense fruit, and with many of the characteristics of Syrah.
Upon further examination aided by her colleagues in France, Dr. Meredith found that Durif was a cross that was selected for planting by a grape breeder named Durif, at the University of Montpellier in the 1880s.
At the time one often heard, particularly from French vintners, that Durif was not related to Syrah, but was instead a “selection” of Peloursin, a French grape variety with limited value in the Rhône and considered to make “ordinary” wine.

Generally Durif is harvested at high levels of ripeness to maximise the distinct varietal characters of blackberry, blueberry, chocolate and licorice and as such, wines are often higher in alcohol than other varieties.
Threfore, Durif wines tends to age and cellar well.

While durif (sometimes misspelled "duriff") may have been mildew resistant, it never impressed the French with its wine, which accounts for the fact that today it is virtually nonexistent there.

 Winestate Magazine - Tasting notes, reviews and articles from Australia's national wine magazine
Here is a wine that can match the Barossa muscle for muscle, but where shiraz is sweet, rich, spicy and chocolatey, durif broadens the red wine drinker’s lexicon with briary, morello cherry and earthy flavours.
The small berries and small bunches of the red grape variety, which was bred by a Dr Durif in the Rhone Valley in the 1880s and found its way to Rutherglen not long after, produce some of the most deeply coloured, highly flavoured and tannic reds around.
A recent bottle of 1992 Barkly from Campbells was your quintessential durif: earthy, blackberry and briary with a meaty, almost savoury quality to it.

 Peasant turns prince / Long considered an ignoble grape, Petite Sirah's parentage lifts the variety from working class ...
Francois Durif, a botanist and grape breeder at the University of Montpellier in southern France, discovered the grape variety in his experimental vineyard around 1880 and named it after himself.
The new grape was the result of an unintended crossing of two grape varieties in the good doctor's care, when the pollen of the "father" vine came into contact with the flower of the "mother" vine.
That Petite Sirah is really Durif had been widely known in wine circles since at least the mid-1970s, after French ampelographers (experts in grapevine identification) examined the vines labeled Petite Sirah in the UC Davis varietal collection and identified them positively as Durif.

It was such an exceptional year for durif that we decided to create this intense varietal vintage port with durifs’ typical spicy, peppery durif characteristics.
The bonus of this is that the resulting wine has incredibly intense colour, flavour and tannin that are often so overwhelming that they can prevent the wine from being drunk for a long period of time.
It is light sparkling wine with lots of berry fruits typical of shiraz and durif.

Until the push for varietally-labeled wines came to the fore in the 1960s and 1970s, little thought was given to this varietal.

Durif is named after Francois Durif, a French botanist who created it in the early 1880s by crossing Syrah and Peloursin, the latter “an obscure southern French vine,” according to Jancis Robinson’s Guide to Wine Grapes (Oxford).
But in the 1970s evidence indicated that Petite Sirah wasn’t Syrah at all but a totally different grape called Durif.
(Australian Syrah is called Shiraz and at least one Aussie Petite Sirah producer calls its wine Durif.) “The name of Syrah has helped Petite,” says Lou Foppiano of Foppiano Vineyards in Sonoma, where Petite Sirah has been used in wines since 1937.
