Australian Shiraz or Bordeaux this Christmas

As I've research on the search terms popularity, "Australian Shiraz" and "Bordeaux wines" are among the most popular wine related search by Asia web users.

Hence, like the others if you are interested to find out which one of them might suit you, just continue to read on.

To start with, Shiraz is the name of the grape varietal used to produce the wine (it is in no way related to the place called Shiraz in Iran); whereas Bordeaux is the famous wine region in France where famous wines like Chateau La Tour; Chateau Lafite and Margaux are produced.

In case you are not awared, New World and Old World named their wines differently.

New World --> Wine are named by grape varietals

Old World --> wine are named by wine regions

By the way, Bordeaux is the blend of Cabernet Sauvignon; Merlot; Cabernet Franc

Forget about Old World or New World, the Important Question is How do you know which types of wine you're like?

Just make it simple, in Singapore's context, if you are a Kopi Kao (I am referring Kopitiam's coffee) person, go for Australian Shiraz. If you are Starbuck coffee (without milk) person, go for Bordeaux

P/S: What if you're a Teh-O person?
