Wine Summary Image

Brokenwood’s sixth release of Murrumbateman Shiraz from the Four Winds Vineyard. This small, cool climate viticultural region is half way between Canberra and Yass and the home of some very fine wineries

such as Clonakilla and Helm.

Murrumbateman had a dry winter followed by average rainfall in 2017. A hail storm in early January reduced an already low crop but the weather from then on was almost perfect, ensuring pristine grapes at harvest with the fruit being picked on the 24th March 2018. As well as spicy Shiraz, the area has been making a name for itself with racy, slatey Rieslings.

Winery Tasting Notes

Bright youthful colour and medium density, not unlike a Hunter Shiraz. Pepper and red spice notes reflect the Canberra region, accompanied by a slight charry oak aroma. Lovely even flow to the palate, medium weight with some vanillin oak sweetness. Red fruit pastille characters and fine tannins on the finish. Enjoy over

the medium term.

Winery Profile

Brokenwood Wines has been named the 2026 Halliday Wine Companion Winery of the Year, one of the most respected honours in Australian wine.

At nearly 40 years young, Brokenwood Wines, in the heart of the Hunter Valley, can lay claim to not only an iconic vineyard with the Graveyard Vineyard but to the preservation of a wine fraternity that proudly has as its mission statement, 'to make great wine and have fun'.

The original land that was to become the Cricket Pitch Vineyard was purchased in 1970 and planted immediately to Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon. The Graveyard Vineyard, planted to Shiraz in 1968, was bought in 1978 and by the mid 1980s was producing a premium Single Vineyard wine. The first Langton's Classification of Premium Australian Wine was launched in 1993 and the Graveyard Shiraz was then, and remains, the highest-placed Hunter Valley Shiraz.

The Hunter Valley is renowned for its dry table wines of Semillon and Shiraz. Brokenwood's production of these is further supported by premium grapes from as far afield as Orange, Beechworth and McLaren Vale.

Today, Brokenwood boasts an impressive array of premium quality wines, sourced from 'all the right regions, for all the right reasons', from the Graveyard Shiraz to the Cricket Pitch Sauvignon Blanc Semillon and Cricket Pitch Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot.

“Our philosophy is to produce wine that focuses on the unique regional characteristics of the Hunter Valley and premium wine regions throughout Australia.” Iain Riggs, Chief Winemaker & Managing Director, Brokenwood Wines.
