The 2004 Oakey Creek Vineyard Hunter Valley Semillon is also a single vineyard, producing just 500 cases. It is opening out into some very appealing warm lemon, key lime and beeswax aromas with just a touch of earthy / chalky character. Crisp acidity, great intensity and a long green-apple finish. Drink now to 2020. Founded in 1970, Brokenwood, by virtue of its illustrious founders (3 lawyers from Sydney) and a proven track-record for producing superlative wines, is today amongst the Hunter Valley’s icons. Production is now at around 100,000 cases with about 50% of this being accounted for by the Cricket Pitch Red and White. Hunter Valley fruit constitutes around 25% of production and it’s their wines from this region that really make Brokenwood outstanding. Brokenwood’s famous Graveyard Vineyard was planted in 1968 using Shiraz cuttings from the vineyards of a couple of the Hunter’s oldest examples: Tyrrell’s and McWilliams. The soils at Graveyard are relatively infertile, slowing the ripening process and giving small vines.Importer: Old Bridge Cellars, Napa, CA; www.oldbridgecellars.com
