Overview

This wine pays homage to the great Hunter River Burgundy-styled wines of pre-1983 and the European Wine Agreement. This single vineyard wine was sourced from the Hunter Valley's Tinkler Vineyard. The Pinot Noir portion has undergone carbonic maceration for 7 days before its entire whole bunch fermentation, then pressed off into old French barrels to complete its malolactic fermentation. The Shiraz portion of the blend has undergone extended post-ferment maceration before being pressed off into a mix of new French and American oak.

Tasting Notes

Aroma

Rich and opulent nose showing notes of black cherry, dark chocolate, vanilla and sweet spice from well-integrated oak usage with a touch of earthy savouriness.

Palate

Rich and intense fruit while still showing freshness of primary fruit accompanied by acid brightness. Fine talc like tannins that coat the mouth and give wine great length.
