Description

BlackJack Vineyards is situated on the granite soils of the Harcourt valley in the Bendigo region of central Victoria.

'BlackJack' was the name given to an American sailor who, during the gold-rush era of the 1850s, had jumped ship and made his way onto the Castlemaine goldfields. A road adjacent to BlackJack Vineyards still bears his name, and is a testament to his colourful reputation.

Winemakers: Ken Pollock and Ian McKenzie.

Take a deep sniff of Block 6 shiraz and you'll be transported to a vineyard surrounded by magnificent Australian bushland and giant eucalypts. It's that evocative. The Aussie scent is joined by spices, lots of them, and rich, ripe black fruits. Discreet vanillin (French) oak provides an extra dimension on the palate. All up, it's so Victorian, so darn smooth and tasty. Enjoy. 14.5% alc. Drink: 2023 - 2033. 92 Points - Jeni Port, winecompanion.com.au
