Graveyard Vineyard - Hunter Valley, NSW

Planted originally in 1968 and sustainably certified under SWA, the 15-hectare Graveyard Vineyard is the cornerstone of Brokenwood’s red wine legacy. Its heavy clay soils produce low yields of intensely flavoured Shiraz, defining the signature Hunter Valley style for which Brokenwood is renowned. First bottled as Graveyard Vineyard in 1983, the Shiraz gained international recognition with its inclusion in Langton’s Classification in 1991 and remains the only ranked Hunter Valley Shiraz. Composed of eleven distinct blocks that express both history and terroir, the vineyard preserves original vine Shiraz genetics and showcases Brokenwood’s enduring pursuit of excellence.

Reviews

A single block of mainly 50yo vines. Take a bottle with you to drink with Maurice O'Shea and he'll be ecstatic. It's supple, perfectly balanced, a pure expression of a quirky vineyard that has been the work of winemaker Iain Riggs for 4 decades. '18 was a great vintage, and he pinged it.
Vivid, deep purple/red colour. Very regional bouquet, with lots of coaldust and graphite; the palate is powerful and highly-structured with superb tannins. Big, full-bodied, muscular. A ripping shiraz and a great Graveyard. - Huon Hooke (The Real Review)
