May 1, 2017 - NobleRottersSydney - Hunter Valley (360 Bar & Dining, Sydney): {screwcap, 12.5%} (Stephen) The days are long gone when a winery’s name was a guarantee of origin, especially so with Brokenwood. This is from not the Hunter, but all over the place it turns out, to Stephen’s surprise (sorry “premium wine-producing areas”). The nose offers lots of figs, oak and cashews. Not unattractive, but a bit shallow. The palate is quite taut, with spicy oak-dominated flavours strung out along a medium/high line of acid. Light/medium body. A bit anonymous and hard to pin down; a little time might settle it a bit, but it’s largely a winemaker’s wine rather than of fruit or place. Short/medium finish. Not for aging.
