Screwcap

Planted in 1968, a century after Johann Christian Henschke released his first wines, this was fourth-generation Cyril Henschke's foray further down into the Eden Valley. Johann explained the high-altitude, north-facing contoured vineyard frustrated his grandfather, who tried until the early 2000s to make a wine from that it he was happy to release. But since the vines turned 50 years old in 2018, they have really started to express themselves, through consistent fruit quality and super-fine tannins. A more delicate, Pinot-esque side of Shiraz, that showcases both the Eden Valley character as well as the vineyard: blueberries, raspberries, blood plums and violets with bth a graceful stoney mineral quality and a mellow chocolate-orange note.
