Fairbank Syrah is a bold Australian Shiraz built for immediate appeal and aging potential. Dark fruit aromas lead into blackberry and plum on the palate, with peppery spice and vanilla from oak. Tannins are firm yet refined, finishing long and savory—versatile with grilled meats, roasts, and hearty pasta dishes.
