This is our second release from Harcourt. It comes from a very specific plot in Victoria’s Bendigo G.I., on the foothills of Mt Alexander (about an hour’s drive north of our cellars). With its pure granite soils and mild climate, we believe Harcourt has one of Australia's most exciting terroirs for Syrah. This fermented with 50% whole bunches, and the wine underwent almost two years’ maturation. The initial period was in older 600- and 1,500-litre Stockinger casks, with the final eight months in 2000-litre Stockinger. It was bottled in late December 2023. It’s a wine that combines lifted perfume and finesse with excellent depth and fine structure.
