🍷🔥 WINTER REDS BY THE FIRE – MASTERCLASS AT THE BOWLO 🔥🍷

There’s nothing quite like a glass of red wine by a crackling fire on a cold winter’s night.

Join us on Tuesday 23 June from 6pm for a special Winter Reds by the Fire Masterclass, hosted by Marcus Hold, Senior Winemaker from Scotchmans Hill.

A proud Geelong local, Marcus started his journey at Scotchmans Hill as a cellar hand in 2003 while studying winemaking at Deakin University, before working his way up to Senior Winemaker. He knows the region, the vineyards and the wines inside out, and he'll be joining us to guide you through an exceptional tasting experience.

You'll enjoy:
🍷 Guided tasting of 6–7 premium Scotchmans Hill wines
🧀 A generous cheese platter perfectly paired to the wines
📝 Tasting notes to take home
🔥 Time to chat with Marcus around the wood fire
🎶 Live music to round out the evening

Set in our beautiful clubhouse, this is the perfect chance to escape the winter chill, discover some fantastic wines, enjoy great company and maybe even find your new favourite drop.
