The Leogate estate tradition of bringing grapes into the winery from districts external to the Hunter Valley has continued in 2018 for the winemaking of "The Gatecrasher" series. This wine is made from grapes grown on our own Certified Organic Vineyard located int he Central Ranges of New South Wales.
This Cabernet Sauvignon displays delightfully rounded flavours of blackberry and blackcurrants that are well balanced by fine grained tannins. The gentle French oak maturation complements the varietal characters of the wine whilst adding structure and length of flavour. This lovely fruit rich wine can best accompany beef, game and cheese.
Cellaring: Excellent drinking now or medium term cellaring 2 - 10 years will be rewarded.
Our Brokenback Shiraz is a rich and flavoursome wine and a classic in our range. Typical of this vineyard, the wine displays pepper, spice, and layers of ripe red berry fruit flavours. With a refined tannin structure and subtle French oak characters, the seamless palate is complex and persistent.
Cellaring: Drinking well now or gain rewarding bottle age complexity with careful cellaring up to 10 years.
