The wine region of Heathcote
Sanctuary of Australian Shiraz north of Melbourne (Victoria): emblematic signature king red on the rare Cambrian soils (red Greenstones of Mt Camel Range, 500+ million years) — powerful and deep with notes of blackberry, plum, chocolate, spice, black pepper and a leather-earth touch, sturdy tannins and a long finish. Structured Cabernet and spicy Grenache as complement. Continental climate with hot days and cool nights, mineral red soils with excellent water retention.
The wine region of Victoria
Australian diversity from cool to temperate climate. Yarra Valley and Mornington: fine, silky Pinot Noir (cherry, raspberry, undergrowth), taut, mineral Chardonnay. Heathcote: structured Shiraz with black fruits, pepper and chocolate. Rutherglen, fortified capital: opulent sweet Topaque and Muscat (raisin, caramel, fig, roast notes).
The word of the wine: Defect
Characteristic of a wine that is either aromatically deviant or unbalanced on the palate due to an excess or a lack of one or more flavors.
