"Syrah and Shiraz are the same grape. It tends to be labeled as Shiraz in Australia and Syrah in the rest of the world (remembering that in France it is more likely to have a geographic name such as St. Joseph or Cote Rotie). There are in fact different strains of Syrahs around the world and often in the same vineyard.

Petite Syrah (sometimes spelled Sirah) is a different grape. Also known as Duriff in Australia and France, the grape has a similar profile of a dark, inky purple wine, but really smells and tastes different. It is more mineral driven in my opinion and may take more bottle age to really develop. In fact, perhaps no red varietal has the ageing potential of Petite Sirah."
