Bannockburn’s 2022 Shiraz from Geelong is a cool-climate expression with elegance and edge. Aromatics are lifted and spicy—think black pepper, violets, red plum, and a hint of smoked meat. The palate is medium-bodied with precise red and dark berry fruit, fresh acidity, and fine tannins that lend grip without heaviness. Subtle oak adds polish without masking the purity of fruit and spice. A savoury, structured wine that rewards decanting and pairs well with chargrilled lamb, game, or mushroom-based dishes. Understated but compelling—built more on detail and energy than weight.
Every wine is scored out of 100 under the Winetrust Scoring System: Flavour 50 (nose 15, palate 25, finish 10), Structure 25, Balance & Harmony 15, Presentation 10. Totals are computed, never hand-entered.
Two bottles minimum, tasted on separate occasions by a named reviewer, unblind — and disclosed. Gifted samples are declared. Price never touches the score — value is rated separately. Nothing below 87 is listed, and key wines are re-tasted at twelve months with their score history preserved.
