This is the third consecutive year that Brokenwood has won the Best Current Vintage Semillon and the second consecutive year that we have won the Best One-Year Old Semillon. These results bode well for the older classes in coming years.

“The Semillon Classes across the board were all a pleasure to judge with the best wines having a perfect balance of expression and power" says Samantha Connew who led the judging panel as Chair of Judges.

It was also pleasing to see our 2014 Verona Vineyard Shiraz take home the trophy for Best Museum Red Wine. 2014 was an outstanding vintage in the Hunter Valley, and the Verona Vineyard is an exceptional site.
