95 Points - Philip Rich
Established in 1982, Scotchmans Hill is located in the heart of the Bellarine Peninsula and has long been regarded as one of the region's premier producers. Scotchmans Hill Shiraz has been in spectacular recent form, establishing itself as one of Victoria's best Shiraz.
This 2022 Scotchmans Hill Shiraz is a brilliant example of how good Bellarine Peninsula Shiraz can be. Offering a complex nose of dark plum, ripe cherry aromas, the palate is intensely flavoured yet approachable with an array of red fruits and dark cherries. Finishing with incredible balance and length, this is a complex, classy Bellarine Shiraz that comes with our highest recommendation.
"95 Points. Another excellent and well-priced shiraz from the team at Scotchmans Hill. This one opens with red and black fruits, freshly cracked pepper and hints of incense and allspice. Elegant, medium bodied and persistent on the palate before finishing with subtle, silky tannins. A pleasure to drink from the get-go. 14% alc. Drink: 2023 - 2028.
