2022 Brokenwood Shiraz is a polished and expressive example of modern Australian Shiraz, showcasing ripe fruit, savoury depth, and balanced structure. Produced by Brokenwood in the Hunter Valley, the wine reflects the region’s signature style—elegant, medium-bodied, and driven by freshness rather than heavy extraction.
In the glass, the wine displays a deep ruby colour with vibrant crimson edges. The nose is inviting and layered, revealing aromas of blackberry, dark cherry, and plum, alongside hints of black pepper, liquorice, and subtle spice.
On the palate, the wine is smooth and well-structured, with flavours of ripe black fruits, mulberry, and red plum supported by gentle savoury notes of spice and dried herbs. Fine tannins and balanced acidity provide structure while keeping the wine approachable and easy to enjoy. The finish is clean, soft, and persistent, with lingering notes of dark berries and a touch of peppery spice.
The 2022 Brokenwood Shiraz is a versatile Australian red that pairs beautifully with grilled meats, barbecued dishes, roast lamb, and hearty pasta.
