Brokenwood Wade Block 2 Vineyard Shiraz 2022
$75.00
A bright, faintly meaty bouquet of blackberries, cassis, blood plums and sweet cedar/vanilla oak reveals notes of cracked pepper and five spice. Medium to fullish in weight, it’s smooth and supple, presenting a long and lively core of bright red and black fruits and fresh oak supported by a fine, powdery spine. Just a little simple for an even higher rating.

Brokenwood
Despite sourcing fruit from as far and wide as Beechworth, Orange, the King Valley and McLaren Vale, Brokenwood’s spiritual home remains firmly in the Hunter, which remains the source of its most drinkable and interesting wines. Sadly, the Rayner Vineyard Shiraz has been discontinued, along with the Mistress Block Shiraz from the Hunter. A recent visit to Brokenwood was memorable not only for the truly incredible quality of the Hunter reds (still in barrel) from 2014 – by some margin the region's finest since 1965 – and for the opportunity to explore some of the individual blocks of semillon, the very finest of which end up under the ILR Reserve label.
