I wanted to let your reader know that COSTCO (my beloved Seattle-based box store) has lately been stocking many syrah wines from the US, Austrailia and South America – What wonderful wine! –Keith from Southern California

While I am going to focus on some of my favourite Hawkes Bay Syrah I was wondering if it was permissable to include wines grown in the old world but outside of thier traditional homeland? In short, is Syrah from Italy and Spain within bounds?

Wine Blogging the Columbia and Rhone…

Being a GIS blogger, I’ve tried to do something that I haven’t seen much of in wine blogs: use Google Earth to help tell the story of the wine. So, start up Google Earth, hit this KML link, select the top-level folder, and read on. [more ...]…

Kelly: Looking forward to hearing about your B.C. Syrah. I have yet to taste any wines from Western Canada.

Jens: Glad you like the theme enough to change your blog’s name

Thanks for th tip on the NZ Syrah, Lisa (surprised it’s not called Shiraz).

Looking forward to finding a bottle today (and sumptuous meat dish to match)! syrah in my cellar is most likely to be cote du rhone and I think that’s the case today.

This is great as Syrah is my new favorite varietal. I am enjoying the d’ Arenberg Laughing Magpie as we speak, but will pull another bottle for the event, either something from Paso Robles or El Dorado. Good luck with the ZAP tasting!

May I suggest someone try the Bridge Pa Vineyard Louis Syrah 2004, from Hawke’s Bay New Zealand. It won a Decanter Trophy in 2006. Available in the U.K through http://www.nzwd.com. From NZ I also suggest Vidal Estate Joseph Soler syrah 2004,Passage Rock Syrah 2005, Craggy Range Le Sol Syrah 2002 and Trinity Hill ‘Homage’ Syrah 2004 – all new world stunners.

Cru Master,

I’m sure you will find several nice Shiraz from South Africa to choose. You might try Stormhoek’s bottling, for example.

Cheers!

Jules,

While Syrah from Italy and Spain are interesting, they are not what I am looking for here. Stick with your Hawkes Bay vino, please

I’ll bet there is something in the Rosemount or Penfolds range you should be able to find in those mega grocery stores you have in France, Lisa

I’d go Cali, John; got an eye on a few bottles of Pax in my cellar; one might get the call here…
