Description:
The newest member to the Running Hare family, our Shiraz is a big, full-bodied wine that bursts into your mouth with distinctive notes of black pepper. The grapes are imported from Chile and aged in American oak and finished in French oak to give this wine a complexity rarely experienced in other shiraz wines.

Varietal Definition
Syrah:
Syrah is the eight hundred pound gorilla of Rhone grapes! In the vineyard and the winery, Syrah is typically an easy grape to work with - healthy, early ripening, resistant to mildew and rot; suitable for winemaking in a variety of styles. The wines from Syrah are tannic without being harsh. The wines will have a taste and smell of dark blue fruit like blackberries and blackcurrant, with a strong spicy side where one can find freshly ground pepper and other spices. Syrah is famous for its part in the French blends, such as Côtes du Rhone and Châteauneuf du Pape.
