Wakefield

Join us in Wakefield for a wonderful afternoon in company of Mr Syrah.

Syrah or Shiraz as it known in the new world, is one of the most planted grapes in the world and its wines are found everywhere and everyone loves it.

Despite being one grape, even if the New World Shiraz is considered to a different grape all together, there are dozens of styles, either blended or its own, and in our “afternoon with Mr Syrah” will taste some of them.

Travelling the length of Italy, from Sicily to Aosta Valley, we will taste 6 different wines 3 blends and 3 100% Syrah as to appreciate the terroir and its contributions to other grapes. The afternoon will consist of a guided tasting of 6 Syrah wines lasting approximately 2 hours. The venue will be confirmed closed to the date but it will be in Wakefield city centre

One grape, many styles: discover the one you love! and if you can't wait, visit our wine and grape section and learn about Syrah and discover the wines we stock.

Italyabroad.com was founded in 2003 in response to a lack of quality Italian wine and food, as soon as Andrea (the founder) landed in the UK noticed that Italian products available were not the ones he was used to when living in Italy.

From wine to food, Andrea could not find the quality he was used to and coming from a wine making family, he decided to embark in a journey to source quality Italian wine and food from small Italian producers: Italyabroad.com’s mission is to discover and import Italian gems from small, little known, yet dedicated, Italian wineries and food producers.

All products we import are of the highest quality and made using the best, natural ingredients and respecting the environment, none of our product contains palm oil or preservatives, we do not import industrial or poor quality products, we believe in a healthy living and eating and drinking well is part of the Mediterranean diet.

Since starting in 2003 Italyabroad.com has won several awards, especially for its wines, from best newcomer from the UK Sommelier Association to UK's people wine Award.
