2023 Brokenwood Graveyard Vineyard Shiraz is a classic example of Hunter Valley Shiraz, coming from the historic Graveyard Vineyard in Pokolbin. Known for its balance and longevity, this vineyard consistently produces wines that combine concentration with remarkable elegance.
In the glass, the wine shows a deep ruby colour with youthful purple tones. The nose is expressive and layered, offering aromas of black cherry, ripe plum, and blackberry, accompanied by subtle notes of black pepper, dried herbs, and a touch of earthy spice.
On the palate, the wine is refined and beautifully structured, with flavours of dark berries, red plum, and savoury spice unfolding across a smooth, medium-to-full bodied frame. Fine tannins and bright acidity provide balance, giving the wine both freshness and impressive depth.
The finish is long and polished, leaving lingering notes of dark fruit, spice, and gentle savoury complexity.
