The Shiraz grape is the same grape as the Syrah grape. Syrah / Shiraz grows in hot weather climates like Persia (where the word "Shiraz" and the grape itself originates), the South of France / Provence, warmer vineyards in California, and Western Australia. Australian style Shiraz, and many California Syrahs, are made to emphasize the fruit on the palate, while old world style French Syrahs and blends like the Chateauneuf du Pape (which includes Syrah) are made to emphasize a more earthy palate.
