Pooley Estate Syrah 2023

Pooley Estate Syrah 2023 is a brand new release and is another terrific example of the ever growing number of Tasmanian cool-climate Syrah/Shiraz. This wine opens with an enticing bouquet of blackberries, violets, and white pepper, with underlying hints of smoked meat and cedar from French oak aging. On the palate, it offers a vibrant and concentrated profile, balancing ripe red cherry fruit flavors with savory notes of red bell peppers and thyme. The wine's fine-grained tannins and vibrant acidity provide a youthful and tightly bound structure, leading to a long, lingering finish that will see flavours to continue to integrated with additional time in the cellar. For current consumption and food matching, the Pooley Estate Syrah has versatility and would pair beautifully with grilled meats, hearty stews, or aged cheeses.
