2022 Twenty70 Red Blend
Sustainable & vegan friendly
Hunter Valley, NSW
A vibrant mulberry colour very much reflects the 2022 vintage fruit. The blackcurrant and Kakadu plum notes on the nose prepares you clearly for the crunchy Cabernet characters on the palate, while the Shiraz adds a suppleness that helps to make this such a delicious drink now. This wine can easily be chilled during the warmer weather as it is a lighter styled red. With minimal sulphur additions this wine is made for easy drinking, while the tannins hold just firm enough to be a serious accompaniment to your favourite puttanesca or spaghetti bolognaise.
Our Twenty70 range is vegan friendly and has been crafted with sustainability in mind, in a Sustainable Winegrowing Australia Certified Winery.

Wine Profile
Vinification
The red was pressed to old French oak barriques (228L) and puncheons (500L) and held there until blending for bottling in October.
Winemaker Comments
Some new varieties became available for us to play with as a result of the Oakey Creek vineyard purchase. This wine is a blend of
Cabernet Sauvignon, Shiraz, and Cabernet Franc. A field blend
fermented in the same way as the white, these two wines are a
pigeon pair representing what the Oakey Creek vineyard site
can do.
Food Pairing
Pair with your favourite puttanesca or spaghetti bolognaise.
Drink
Drinking very well now or over the short term.
