Appearance: Deep red in colour with a bright red hue.

Bouquet: A fragrant bouquet of red and blackberry fruit with spice and background cedary notes.

Palate: The Balmain is a modern Australian blend of Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. These three grape varieties are grown on our own Certified Organic Vineyard located in the Central Ranges of NSW.

The wine is rich and velvety, displaying bright red fruit flavours with lovely supple tannins to provide a fresh and long palate. The French oak characters gently sitting in the background adding complexity and length to the soft and rounded finish. Medium to full bodied.

Cellaring: Excellent drinking now or will further develop with careful cellaring up to 5 years.

Our Western Slopes Shiraz is an isolated parcel selected from the west-facing, low yielding vines on our Brokenback Vineyard and is produced in very limited quantities. This 2018 Hunter Valley Shiraz displays layers of dark berry fruit flavours with a touch of spice and a fine, silky tannin structure. The well-integrated French oak leaves the palate full yet soft with great complexity and length.

Cellaring: Careful cellaring up to 10 years will be rewarded.
