Bright mid-density colour with purple hues just adding to the appeal. The use of large format French oak allows the red spice and bramble fruit of Hunter Shiraz to shine. Initial palate is very supple and complete, giving a lovely flow from start to finish. The importance of acidity can never be underestimated as this underpins the structure and carry. A classic, medium weight Hunter Valley Shiraz with fine long tannins with persistent length. A wine that will only build with time.

Reviews

This is an exceptional Graveyard. Subtly complex and detailed from the very first smell, offering blackberries with spice-laced, cedary oak, violets and blueberries. The palate has such composed, rich and concentrated blueberry and blackberry flavors. But the freshness of this 2019 vintage is the thing that really sets it apart. Long, seamless and intense.
Tasted alongside 2018 and 2017 Graveyard Shiraz. This is the first Graveyard that was bottled in less than a year since the 1980s. “I thought the 19s were too firm and didn’t want to dry them out in bottle. Natural tannin was perfect and plentiful”, says winemaker Stu Hordern. It’s all puncheons and zero new oak now. Right on.
