Description Established in 2009 by Bill and Vicki Widin, 5 Red Star Leogate Estate is barely 10 years old, but is already a formidable force. Their vines are much older - the Widins are proud owners of the original Brokenback Vineyard established by Rothbury Estate over 40 years ago. They’ve also recently acquired an organic Mudgee vineyard. As Halliday says, they’ve had “a string of wine show successes for their very impressive portfolio”. Their Brokenback Semillon shows off the Hunter's elegant, yet flavoursome style: "Hints of honeysuckle and lemongrass add breadth to the fine line of citrussy flavour running the length of the palate. There's nothing cutting or searing about this wine and yet the course of the palate is straight and true...93pts" (Halliday).
