Hermitage (grape)

Hermitage (grape)

Hermitage is used as a synonym for several different wine grape varieties in certain countries:

* Syrah (or Shiraz) in Australia, although this usage is now less common.
* Cinsault in South Africa and parts of Europe.

See also

* Hermitage AOC, a famous wine appellation of the Northern Rhône which uses Syrah for its red wines, explaining the Australian use of "Hermitage" as a synonym for that grape variety.
