✨ Tekniske specifikationer
The Old Dairy range by Scotchmans Hill pays homage to the rustic agricultural heritage of the Bellarine Peninsula, specifically referencing the historic dairy farm buildings that stood on the estate before it was transformed into a pioneering cool-climate vineyard in 1982. This Sauvignon Blanc is crafted to showcase a fresh, vibrant, and highly approachable style. Sourced from select vineyards in Victoria, the fruit benefits from cool maritime breezes that preserve natural acidity while developing bright tropical and herbaceous characters. Winemaking focuses on temperature-controlled stainless steel fermentation to retain pristine fruit purity, resulting in a lively, clean, and refreshing white wine that captures the essence of Victoria's cool-climate viticulture.
🍾 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.
