Description
Place of Changing Winds is a vineyard in the Macedon Ranges area of Victoria that grows Pinot Noir and Chardonnay as well as producing two Heathcote Syrahs from a single plot of vines. ‘Tradition’ is a blend of the two styles of red we produce: declassified Estate Pinot Noir blended with Heathcote Syrah. It’s a homage to these styles. The name is a little joke but it also nods to the pioneer of blending Syrah with Pinot (in the ’50s and ’60s), Hunter legend Maurice O’Shea. Simply, the POCW team trialled the blend, loved it and so bottled it. With the two varieties providing a great foil for one another, you can expect lots of crunchy red fruits, some rose-like hints, bright, peppery freshness and a long, tangy close.
