British Columbia has a reputation for producing high-quality Syrah wines that are known for their intense flavors and cool climate character. In wine competitions, BC Syrah is consistently named the top red wine in Canada. The wines fall somewhere between the rich, ripe style of Australian Syrah and the medium-bodied, pepper-forward wines of the northern Rhône Valley in France. BC Syrah is known for its intense fruit flavors, gamey notes, and floral aromas, as well as its distinctive black pepper character. These wines are a reflection of the unique terroir of the region, and the skill of the winemakers who craft them.
