A few months ago I enthusiastically reviewed the excellent 2024 vintage of this wine. Within a couple of weeks it had snared major show trophies and sold out rapidly. The 2025 vintage has probably been released a little earlier than planned, but it is certainly worth jumping on the bandwagon if you enjoy savoury, spicy and thoroughly delectable cool-climate syrah (which most Australians call shiraz). The fruit comes from the Coal River Valley in the south of Tasmania with winemaking nous from talented Anna Pooley. This is extremely food friendly with a soft, supple mouthfeel. French oak is the support act to quality fruit. $60. https://www.pooleywines.com.au/
