Eppalock Ridge
Eppalock Ridge produces wines from Central Victoria, a region in Australia's heartland known for powerful Shiraz and structured red blends. The winery's portfolio centers on two flagship expressions: a Heathcote Shiraz built on the region's signature dark fruit and spice, and Susa's Selection, a Cabernet-Shiraz-Merlot blend that marries the three varieties into a cohesive whole. Both wines have been assessed by Wine Advocate, Wine Enthusiast, and Wine Spectator. The Heathcote Shiraz achieves an average prestige rating of 88.0, while Susa's Selection rates at 88.8—a testament to the precision of the blend. Central Victoria's warm continental climate and distinctive terroir shape wines of depth and intensity, characteristics evident in Eppalock Ridge's approach to these classic varieties.
