🍷 Appearance
Vibrant mulberry to deep crimson colour in the glass, reflecting the bright fruit character of the 2022 vintage.
👃 Aroma (Nose)
Expressive aromas of blackcurrant and dark plum lead the bouquet, complemented by notes of Kakadu plum, subtle spice and faint herbal Cabernet lift.
👅 Palate
Juicy and fruit-driven with flavours of cassis, ripe blackberry and red berries. The Cabernet varieties contribute fresh, crunchy fruit and structure, while Shiraz adds roundness and supple texture across the mid-palate.
⚖️ Structure
Medium-bodied with fine tannins and balanced acidity. The style is smooth and approachable, designed for early drinking and enjoyment, even slightly chilled in warmer weather.
🔚 Finish
Soft and lively with lingering dark fruit and gentle spice, finishing clean and refreshing.
🍇 Overall Style
A vibrant, modern Hunter Valley red blend—fresh, juicy and easy-drinking. Crafted to be approachable and fun, reflecting the playful spirit of Brokenwood’s Twenty70 range.
🍽️ Food Pairing
Excellent with pasta dishes such as spaghetti bolognese or puttanesca, grilled sausages, barbecue meats or casual shared plates.
Cheers
