Heathcote, located in central Victoria, is a highly regarded Australian wine region celebrated for its distinctive, full-bodied Shiraz. The region’s defining feature is its ancient Cambrian soils—deep, red, and rich in minerals—which, combined with a warm, dry climate and cool nights, create ideal conditions for producing powerful yet balanced wines. Heathcote Shiraz is known for its depth, dark fruit flavours, fine tannins, and age-worthy structure, often showing a unique earthy character that reflects its terroir.

While Shiraz is the star, the region also produces impressive examples of Sangiovese, Tempranillo, and Grenache. With a mix of well-known producers and passionate boutique wineries, Heathcote offers a dynamic and authentic wine experience, set against a backdrop of rolling hills, bushland, and a strong sense of regional pride.
