Crafted by Rob Walters with a meticulous, minimal intervention approach, the wine emphasizes finesse, aromatic lift and structure, with the 2023 vintage standing out for its balance and elegance from a cooler growing season. The nose is highly lifted and expressive, revealing violet, lavender and floral aromatics alongside blackberry, blood plum and crushed rock minerality. There is a distinctive spicy and exotic edge from the high proportion of whole-bunch fermentation (around 60%), adding layers of pepper, herbal complexity and savoury intrigue.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the palate, it is medium-bodied with fine, structured tannins and bright, natural acidity that gives the wine energy and precision. The fruit profile is vibrant and detailed, with red and dark fruits supported by spice, mineral tension and savoury nuance. The structure is linear and composed, leading to a long, persistent and finely balanced finish that highlights both perfume and depth — a hallmark of this site and style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBen’s Recommendation:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAt Wine More Cellars, this is one of the most compelling modern Australian Syrah expressions — combining Rhône-like perfume and structure with a distinctly Australian sense of place. Compared to richer, heavier Shiraz styles, it offers far more elegance, spice and mineral tension. The magnum format (1500ml) is ideal for cellaring, allowing for slower, more graceful evolution. Enjoy now with decanting or cellar through 2038+ for added complexity. Exceptional with lamb, duck, game meats or earthy, savoury dishes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eInfo\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"846\" style=\"height: 117.563px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"height: 19.5938px; text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eCOUNTRY\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 19.5938px; text-align: left;\"\u003eAustralia\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px; text-align: left;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003ePRODUCER\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003ePlace of Changing Winds\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px; text-align: left;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eVARIETY\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003eSyrah\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px; text-align: left;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eSTYLE\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003eRed Wine\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px; text-align: left;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eVINTAGE\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e2023\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"height: 19.5938px; text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eSIZE\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 19.5938px; text-align: left;\"\u003e1500ml\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Place of Changing Winds","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51217384014139,"sku":"24354-1500","price":130.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0574\/6779\/7699\/files\/2023_Place_of_Changing_Winds_Harcourt_Syrah_1500ml.png?v=1778147352","url":"https:\/\/winemore.com.au\/products\/2023-place-of-changing-winds-harcourt-syrah-1500ml","provider":"Wine More Cellars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
