Scotchmans Hill Swan Bay Bellarine Peninsula Shiraz

This is outstanding value in a refined and beautifully textural style that carries considerable fruit concentration and more elegant balance even than Scotchmans Hill $65 flagship syrah! A stylish and complex shiraz of black plum and blackberry fruit, black pepper and subtle nuances of charcuterie complexity. Tannins are beautifully fine and textural, providing a fine-grained structure to support a long, linear finish. $14 at Vintage Cellars and Liquorland Direct.
