Syrah
Red · Full · Dry
Shiraz's more reserved European cousin — Northern Rhône style, all violets, black olive, and white pepper. Less brawn, more poise; pairs as well with lamb as with peppered duck breast.
Why it works with Smoky Barbecue Brisket
Syrah gives Smoky Barbecue Brisket a savory partner — cherry, leather, and a touch of acid.
