The Story
In 2003 a single barrel called Bruce, held our entire first vintage. Named after Kathryn’s late father, Bruce is the most iconic and personally significant wine that we produce.
Immediately assertive and assured, the Bruce displays classic Northern Barossa aromatics of dark chocolate, mocca, liquorice and cherry, with hints of clove and spice eluding further curiosities. There is a comforting familiarity to the nose that all Bruce lovers will adore, like a warm embrace from an old friend. The palate is alive and lush, smooth and juicy, with a gravelly, ripe tannin profile encircling the core of fruit.
The vibrant energy in the wine is a testament to the cool harvest conditions, and we have worked hard on maintaining this freshness through maturation. This Bruce may well be the most approachable we have released, and it’s soft, velvety and balanced texture belies its aging potential.
Cellar: Drink now to 2040
