✨ Tekniske specifikationer
The Hill Cuvée Brut represents the vibrant, approachable side of the historic Scotchmans Hill estate. Drawing on their cool-climate expertise, this sparkling wine is crafted to showcase bright fruit expression and crisp, refreshing acidity. While Scotchmans Hill is deeply rooted in the volcanic soils of the Bellarine Peninsula, 'The Hill' range allows the winemakers to select premium fruit, often sourcing from select vineyards across South Australia to craft a consistent, lively, and celebratory style. It is made using classic sparkling techniques designed to preserve the pristine primary fruit characters of green apple, citrus, and subtle yeast autolysis, offering a sophisticated yet highly accessible sparkling experience.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Scotchmans Hill blev grundlagt i 1982 af David og Catherine Browne og er en pioner på den kystnære Bellarine Peninsula i Victorias anerkendte Geelong-vinregion. Vingården råder over en rig, vulkansk basaltjordbund og nyder godt af et tørt, køligt mikroklima, der tempereres af de maritime briser fra Port Phillip Bay og Bass Strait. Under ledelse af den mangeårige chefvinmager Robin Brockett arbejder huset med minimal intervention og præcisionsdyrkning for at udtrykke det autentiske terroir. Scotchmans Hill er særligt berømt for sine elegante Pinot Noir-vine, komplekse Chardonnay, køligt prægede Shiraz samt den eksklusive Cornelius-enkeltmarksserie.
