✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Hailing from the cool, maritime climate of the Bellarine Peninsula in Victoria, The Old Dairy Shiraz by Scotchman's Hill pays direct tribute to the estate's agricultural heritage. Before the Browne family planted their first vines in 1982, this wind-swept coastal property operated as a traditional local dairy farm. Today, the black volcanic soils that once nourished dairy pastures yield a highly elegant, cool-climate style of Shiraz. Unlike the heavy, jammy profiles found in warmer Australian regions, this wine is defined by its savory complexity, vibrant dark berry fruit, and a distinct signature of cracked black pepper, all framed by fine-grained tannins from careful French oak maturation.
🍾 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.
