5 in 5: Syrah VS Shiraz, Diverse McLaren Vale

We all know that diversity is key to understanding a variety and a region, and in this tasting, I take you through five seriously good, and wildly different Syrah. From fine and bunchy, through to big/alcoholic/plush and everything in between, this snapshot tasting shows that a region as diverse and nuanced as McLaren Vale, is capable of a big elastic spectrum of styles.
