" In the future, you're going to being hearing more about the wines from Bendigo and one of its sub-regions, Heathcote. They have good precision and avoid the over the top jammy styles that some people associate with Aussie reds. Tom Conner planted his Shiraz vines in the late sixties and they remain one of the older blocks in the area. He was a pioneer in agriculture who passed away in 1982. His nephew Ross and wife Robyn have carried the torch and brought the neglected vineyards back to life. There are complex aromatics of tar, licorice, cassis, bittersweet chocolate and dark fruits with some blueberry high notes. The good acidity gives a nice juicy feel on the palate with fine tannins and excellent length. Don't wait for a Parker report; this is good juice."
