 Shiraz grape - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Shiraz continues to be the main grape of the Northern Rhône and is associated with classic wines such as Hermitage and Côte-Rôtie.
Shiraz has been widely used as a blending grape in the red wines of many countries due to its fleshy fruit mid-palate, balancing the weaknesses of other varieties and resulting in a "complete" wine.
Shiraz is also used to make the unique "sparkling Shiraz," a deep-red sparkling wine which also ages well.
