Loved this for an afternoon of Greek, Portuguese and Eastern Mediterranean apps. It’s almost orange, with strawberries grounded by loads of minerals & salinity. Reminds me of the wines grown on the volcanic soil on Santorini. I gather the growing is similar, low to the ground to protect the vines from sea winds. — 3 years ago

Juicy dark fruit, smoke, and tapanade, lively with soft, sticky tannin. Super gluggable. — a year ago

Fuhk, still super fresh with lovely arc of acidity coursing through creamy, yet clean, meyer lemon, white peaches, and on and on. Well done Tyson! — 6 months ago

Completely disoriented by this very original expression of the Syrah. We expect a Sunny wine with alcohol and the typical notes of Australian Shiraz outside, we have here a wine of great delicacy with rather red fruity notes, and unexpected vegetable notes of menthol and even eucalyptus, also a slight musk animal character. The winemaking is admirable and we recognize Alain Graillot's style. Superb! 🇦🇺

On attend un vin du soleil avec de l’alcool et les notes typées du Shiraz australien hors, on a ici un vin d’u grande délicatesse avec des notes fruitées plutôt rouges, et des notes végétales inattendues mentholée et même eucalyptus, également un léger caractère animal musqué. La vinification est admirable et on reconnaît le style d’Alain Graillot. Superbe! 🇦🇺 — 2 years ago

At a good French restaurant in Sydney - Franca Brasserie. Place of Changing Winds is the brainchild of Robert Walters, one of the leading importers of Fine Wine into Australia - IFW. This is his local venture based in the Macedon Ranges, to the immediate north of Melbourne. Specialising in Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. 2020 as a vintage is well described on the label as “Annus Horribilis”. Terrible weather including a freak frost meant only 100 dozen bottles were produced. As often happens in these difficult vintages the resulting wine was very good - pretty and perfumed yet structured and fine boned at the same time. Looking forward to trying more bottles from this ultra boutique winery. — 2 months ago
