The Brokenback Vineyard, Pokolbin, was planted in the 1970's by a visionary group led by the late, legendary, Len Evans, AO, OBE. Over the ensuing years the vines have produced premium wines under a variety of labels. In 2008 the vineyard then in two parts, was purchased privately and amalgamated.

Made from Chardonnay grapes grown on our Brokenback Vineyard this refined sparkling wine displays aromas of almonds laced with elegant melon fruit flavours. The vibrant palate has a generous but delicate refreshing citrus core with a complex creamy finish.

Enjoy this early drinking style on any occasion.

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.
