This is the third Syrah release from Harcourt North (from the same site as the white above). Just touching 13%, it is the prettiest and most floral Syrah POCW has made from the exciting, granite-rich Lome vineyard. The long hang time and slow ripening in 2023 allowed the team to pick exactly when they wanted, and it shows in the superb balance of the wine. Fermented with 60% whole-bunches, the wine underwent almosttwo years’ maturation in large-format Stockinger (500, 1,500- and 2,000-litre casks) and was bottled in late February 2025. From a cooler vintage, it’s another example that combines perfume and finesse with excellent depth and fine structure. - Place of Changing Winds, Winery.
