Scotchmans Hill
Scotchmans Hill is a well-known small winery business located near Geelong, on Melbourne's Port Phillip Bay. The extended drought last decade didn't made viticulture easy for several years, but Scotchmans Hill continues to make a complex and rustic series of wine that perhaps have more in common with Worlds Old than New. Some current releases are more edgy and rustic than ever before, and some of the whites err on the side of more funkiness than fruit. The intriguing 2010 Sutton Vineyard Chardonnay shows that the balance can be achieved.
