Syrah","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhere’s the Pope? is McLaren Vale Syrah for people who usually reach for Pinot. Ochota has always kept this wine light and savoury, and the cooler 2026 vintage pushes it further in that direction.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe fruit comes from Onkaparinga Hills vines planted in 1996 on schist and clay. Early picking, a generous proportion of whole bunches and a short stay in seasoned oak have shaped the style, keeping freshness ahead of weight.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eExpect red berries, black olive and peppery spice, with a little dried herb. The 2026 is especially delicate and frisky, with soft texture, gentle tannins and a fresh, savoury finish.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGive it a slight chill and open it with grilled mushrooms or lamb off the barbecue. A lighter take on McLaren Vale Syrah and totally gluggable, as with all the Ochota wines.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ochota Barrels","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50448413786155,"sku":"2026 Ochota Barrels Where's the Pope?
