Scotchmans Hill Strathallan Syrah 2016, Geelong, Vic
Intense rich black cherry fruits with a hint of reduction in the background. Elegant wine similar to a Northern Rhone wine. Textured, juicy with nice acid profile and punchy tannins. Blackberry and black cherry flavours all combine to produce a dry long finish.
Scotchmans Hills Shiraz 2021, Geelong, Vic
Lovely depth of aroma on the nose displaying spice, floral and hints of struck match. Black cherry flavours drive the medium bodied palate. Slightly tannic finish which leads me to think it will benefit from some bottle age.

Muscular wine displaying darker red berries such as redcurrants and cherry. Firm, textured palate with even a hint of licorice coming from the start of some tertiary development. Long finish.
Scotchmans Hill Cornelius Kincardine Chardonnay 2017, Geelong, Vic
Nutty, butter with lemon peel and white peach aromas. Showing some slight development. Elegant, poised and well-balanced palate. Fruit shines through, but in a refined way maintaining a citrus acid liveliness. Drinking perfectly at present. Fabulous stuff.

Bannockburn Chardonnay 2021, Geelong, Vic
This wine pulls out all the bells and whistles. Rich nose displaying creamy lemon tart, almond nuts, white peach and ever so toasty. The palate doesn't disappoint and follows the rich nose. Full bodied, textured and toasty, yet it retains a slightly lemony, tart edge...
Banks Road Will’s Selection Pinot Noir 2018, Geelong, Vic
Nice cherry, raspberry and strawberry driven nose. Dry and savoury on the palate with a firm front palate coming from the whole bunch component. Well balanced as the wine travels along the palate to elegant long finish. Still looks youthful.
