Brokenwood Graveyard Shiraz 2014
DESCRIPTION:
The Brokenwood Graveyard Vineyard Shiraz is one of Australia's most iconic single-vineyard wines, produced from the historic Graveyard Vineyard in the Hunter Valley. Since its first vintage in 1983, this flagship release has earned an international reputation for its elegance, longevity and unmistakable regional character. The 2014 vintage reflects the vineyard's unique terroir, combining concentrated fruit with refined structure and the balance that has made Graveyard Shiraz a benchmark for premium Australian Shiraz.
Deep crimson with garnet highlights, the nose is intensely aromatic with ripe blackberry, plum and dark cherry, layered with violets, cracked black pepper, cedar and subtle earthy notes. The palate is rich yet beautifully restrained, delivering flavours of black fruits, liquorice and dark chocolate, supported by fine-grained tannins and seamlessly integrated French oak. A long, savoury finish with lingering spice and mineral complexity promises exceptional drinking now while rewarding careful cellaring for years to come.
