  2019 Cricket Pitch Red, Brokenwood

  £2295

  The Cricket Pitch wines are the perfect introduction to the wines of the iconic hunter valley winery, Brokenwood.

  The 2019 Cricket Pitch Red is a multi-regional blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Shiraz sourced from premium regions including Beechworth, McLaren Vale and Coonawarra.

  In the glass it has a beautiful deep colour with youthful tints, the aromas open with juicy berry fruits and subtle spices.  The palate is juicy and fruit driven with fine long tannins.  All in all a great glass of wine and although it is made as a drink-now style, it always benefits from a few extra years in bottle.

  2018 Old Vines Cabernet Sauvignon & Shiraz, Tahbilk

  £2950

  The old vines deliver a generous and expressive wine, with underlying elegance. Hints of bay leaf, mint and pepper weave seamlessly around dark berry, spice and plum fruits with herbal and cedar oak-derived complexity.

  Tahbilk’s vineyards are grouped along the banks of the Goulburn River, a branch of it which flows through the estate. The vines are grown at around 134 metres elevation of gently undulating and flat terrain. The soils are sandy loam with ferric oxide content, which vary from very fine sand near the anabranch to denser loams on the plains. Tahbilk has Shiraz vineyards dating back from the 1860s to the 1990s. The oldest surviving block is the ‘1860 block’; planted on its own roots in sandy soils, which has made it impossible for phylloxera to colonise the vine roots.
