The Story

‘Eric Stevens Purbrick’ Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon  / Selected from the most outstanding casks produced by the Estate from a particular vintage, each is made utilising Tahbilk’s traditional red winemaking approach.
Fermentation takes place in 100 year old plus open oak vats followed by maturation in small French and American oak prior to bottling and then further cellaring before release. These quite remarkable wines fittingly carry the name and signature of Eric Stevens Purbrick who began their dynasty under the monikers ‘Special Bin’ (1948 - 1984) and then ‘Reserve’ (1985 - 2001).

Written Notes

Crafted from the best of vintage Cabernet Sauvignon, the choicest parcels collated from across the wonderful endowment of Tahbilk vineyards. It was the serendipitous discovery of a very old bottle Cabernet, unearthed just after WWII, from within the ageing Tahbilk wineworks, that inspired Eric Purbrick to re establish opearations after a long period of neglect. Tahbilk remain home to the eldest and most distinguished Cabernet vines. Eric Stevens Purbrick is dressed to impress, intensely flavoured with opaque berry flavours, sheathed in a veneer of graceful oak.
