A delicious Hunter Shiraz from a stunning vintage. Peter and his team have really been kicking goals over the last few years. In the glass: Fresh deep red. On the nose: Deluxe oak spice over vanilla, bergamot, red cherry and white pepper. On the palate: Flavour-packed with red and black fruits, lifted black pepper and herb spice, refined and satiny oak before a long finish.

Dark cherries, subtle oak, white pepper spice. Bright red and black fruits with savoury spice.

This is a rich red wine displaying layers of red and blue fruits that are well complemented by sweetness ands tructure from the oak barrels. The presence of fine tannins and spicy notes contributes to the seamless palate, delivering a wine of greater character, intensity and balance. The wine is ready for immediate drinking but also has excellent potential for careful cellaring up to 10+ years.

Handpicked in three passes through the vineyard, only selecting the perfect bunches on each run. The fruit was destemmed to small open fermenters for a brief cold soaking period where intense colour was gained immediately. Fermented at 18-25 ?C for approximately 9 days. Gently pressed to large format French oak barrels (~20% new) for almost 12 months maturation, before blending and bottling. Deep purple. Intense dark fruits coupled with lovely spice and red berries. Structural with powerful fruit, a long intense palate with seamless tannin.

Dalwood Estate has emerged from the old Wyndham Estate site, with vines that are part of Australian wine history, but with some newer varieties and blends emerging as well.Medium red purple. Blackberry, blood plum and English breakfast tea on the nose. Medium-weight with a juicy mix of black fruit with hints of dried herb and tea leaf, long savoury tannins and generous flavour persistence. A great food wine.

The intensely perfumed, sumptuous and seductive Brokenwood Graveyard articulates the very best of Hunter Shiraz. It is arguably the Hunter Valley's greatest red wine of the contemporary era. The east-facing Graveyard vineyard, first planted out in 1968, was once earmarked in 1882 as the Pokolbin cemetery but this did not eventuate.Young elemental Graveyard typically shows ginger bread, blackberry aniseed fruit, plenty of savoury oak and floral herb garden notes. The opulent gamey French polish characters develop with time bringing a rich palimpsest of aromas and flavours.
