Description

Unveiling the inaugural offering from our Milestone Collection, this wine commemorates Ricky Ponting's historic innings of 127 against England at Headingley, Leeds, UK, in 1997 – a monumental achievement that marked his debut in Ashes Test cricket and his maiden test century. This remarkable innings not only initiated a test career spanning 15 years, during which he amassed an additional 40 Test hundreds, but Ricky himself held few in higher regard than his unforgettable first-up 127.

"That day I probably played as well as I have in any test innings, and that made it even more pleasing. That'd be as close as any to my best." - Ricky Ponting

"This wine reflects the best of the Barossa. Hand selected parcels of fruit including a batch from a vineyard planted over a century ago were blended to create this milestone Shiraz." - Ben Riggs

Tasting Profile

Palate
Full flavoured and elegant, bursting with nuances of dark red fruits and spice. Mouthcoating tannins are apparent but well integrated, a wine that will reward a longer cellaring of up to ten years.
