The Rothbury Estate Brokenback range constitutes the pinnacle of winemaking at one of the Hunter Valley’s most famous wineries. The fruit for each of the wines is sourced from vineyards at the foot of the famous Brokenback ranges to the west of Pokolbin, in New South Wales. The Brokenback Shiraz is a classic example of one of Australia’s great red wine styles – Lower Hunter Shiraz. The Brokenback Shiraz presents as a medium red/purple colour in the glass. The nose offers lifted berry fruit with balanced American oak and a hint of classic Hunter Valley earthiness. On the palate the rich, ripe varietal Shiraz flavours of sweet berry, chocolate and spicy oak, tight grained tannins combine to deliver a soft and velvety mouthfeel with good length. Cellaring: 3 to 6 years Viticulture: The fruit for the Brokenback Shiraz comes from the loamy volcanic soils at the foot of the Brokenback ranges in the Lower Hunter Valley. Vinification: After de-stemming and crushing, the must was transferred to stainless steel tanks where it began fermentation. Traditional cap management techniques were employed such as plunging and pumping over. The wine was pressed and transferred into oak barrels where it completed fermentation. It received 12 months maturation in American and French oak barrels. (6 x 75 cl)
