Personalised Henschke Hill of Grace Shiraz Eden Valley Extremely Limited 2017 14.5% 750ml
Expert Review:
NICK STOCKJAMESSUCKLING.COM- 100 points "Hill of Grace's innate complexity and long, detailed tannin quality is a hallmark of this wine year in, year out, and the 2016 certainly possesses great length and concentration. The intensity of flavors framed in fine yet strikingly linear tannin equates to a very composed wine with contained power. The balance is pitch perfect. It is a vintage of extreme pedigree."
Deep crimson in colour with violet hues. Lifted, exotic aromas of star anise, sage, bay leaf and fennel frame dark and brooding blackberry, Satsuma plum, mulberry and red currant notes. The palate is rich, plush and concentrated with amazing depth and complexity from succulent plum, blackberry and blueberry revealing star anise, black pepper, charcuterie and cedar. Balanced acidity provides freshness and structure, while layers of silky tannins result in an elegant finish with exceptional length.
