The wine

From Marsanne vines planted in 1927, among the oldest in the world, released only with a decade's maturity. Complex lemon and orange aromas carry fresh hay overtones; lemon, grapefruit, toast and classic rich honeysuckle weave through the textured palate, beautifully balanced by a zesty finish. A living piece of Australian wine history in a glass.

The producer

Tahbilk

View all Tahbilk wines

Established in 1860, Tahbilk is one of Australia's great historic family wineries, set in the Nagambie Lakes of Central Victoria. The name comes from tabilk tabilk, place of many waterholes in the language of the Daungwurrung clans, and it fits: 1,214 hectares with seven miles of frontage to the Goulburn River.

Tahbilk is renowned above all for Marsanne. The estate holds the world's largest single planting of the variety, including vines established in 1927 that are among the oldest anywhere, and its rare aged releases are collected the world over. The reds, from estate Shiraz to the Old Vines Cabernet Shiraz, carry the same unhurried, savoury stamp.

Environmental care is paramount: Tahbilk has been carbon neutral since 2013. In 2016 James Halliday named it Winery of the Year. Few cellars anywhere offer this much history for the money.
