Also know as Petit Syrah, a bold, full bodied red, Durif is known for its intense colour, dense structure and rich, concentrated flavours. Expect powerful notes of blackberry, plum, liquorice, and sometimes dark chocolate or black pepper, all supported by a firm tannin backbone. Australian expressions add a sun ripened vibrancy, balancing the wine’s muscularity with ripe, fruit driven appeal.
Food Pairing
A natural match for slow cooked beef brisket, sticky BBQ ribs, or hearty dishes with smoky paprika, grilled mushrooms, or aged cheddar.
