Violet color. Aromas and flavors of black cherry, strawberry Pez, blackberry and cocoa, and cedar dust with a velvety, vibrant, dry medium body and a warming, engaging, medium-long finish revealing notes of black cherry and blackberry, black plum and mint, cocoa dust, and black tea with grippy, coating, chalky, dusty tannins. An assertive red for bold, savory meats and stews.

Other important Australian reds besides Shiraz include Grenache, Mourvedre, Cabernet Sauvignon and Pinot Noir, along with small quantities of Tempranillo, Malbec and a few others.

Pinot Noir performs beautifully in Western Australia, while Grenache and Morvedre can be found in several areas, including New South Wales and Barossa. These two Rhone varieties are often blended together; recently a highly acclaimed and popular Austrlaian red is GSM, referring to three grapes: Grenache, Shiraz and Mourvedre. This blend is loosely based on the famed Châteauneuf-du-Pape wine from France's Rhone Valley.

Excellent versions of Cabernet Sauvignon are produced in several reigions including the Barossa Valley, Coonawarra and Langhorne Creek.
