Tahbilk 1860 Vines Shiraz 2012
Tahbilk 1860 Vines Shiraz 2012
This wine, though medium-bodied, possesses a compelling presence that commands attention, greeting the senses with a delicate balance of fragrant spices, earthiness, and red fruits. Oak subtly underscores the bouquet without overpowering it. On the palate, its medium-bodied profile offers suppleness, flawless equilibrium, and impressive length. In many respects, this could be considered the quintessence of Australian red winemaking spanning over a century and a half.
For five generations, the Purbrick family has nurtured vines and preserved the fragile ecosystem surrounding their estate near Nagambie. A pilgrimage to their winery is a must for any wine enthusiast, offering marsanne and a selection of reds crafted in the tradition of the late, esteemed Eric Purbrick. Embracing sustainability, the family has restored natural wetlands, replanted 160 hectares with native flora, and embarked on the path to organic viticulture. Tahbilk earned its stripes as a carbon-neutral winery in 2013 and stands proudly as a founding member of Australia’s First Families of Wine.
