Place of Changing Winds

Annus Horribilis Pinot Noir 2020

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. — a month ago

Pinot Noir 2016

The fruit is barely noticeable. For a while (an hour after opening the bottle) I smelled cherry liqueur. The second glass - two hours after opening - was already devoid of fruit. The wine has become pleasantly raw: cola (carbonated :) ), some leather, hot asphalt,. Delicious pinot. — 8 months ago

Chardonnay 2013

A beautiful wine. Full of life, energy and flavour. Not cloying, but refreshing. Delicate across the palate for a wine displaying aged Chardonnay characteristics and so full of flavour. Drink now or hold for another few years. — 6 months ago

Doug's Vineyard-Romsey Pinot Noir

Delicious Pinot Noir. Initially this had some VA on the nose. A few minutes of swirling solved that. Blind, I would have guessed Russian River. — 2 months ago

Macedon Ranges Pinot Noir 2015

Always a pleasure opening a Curly Flat and this was no exception. A little sterner than the HCE 1er pinot noir that preceded it — tough act to follow — but quality all the way. — 7 months ago

Syrah 2015

Whole bunch/green component coming through strongly. Old world weight and taste - peppery and spicy. Good pure fruit, but needs time to blend with the tannin and herbaceous notes. — 2 years ago
