Henschke Mount Edelstone Shiraz 750ml

Henschke is one of the longest established family names in the Barossa and the Australian wine industry. Johann Christian Henschke first planted vines in Keyneton in 1861, producing his first commercial vintage in 1868. The tradition of quality wine making has passed down through the generations – today seeing Stephen Henschke and his wife, Prue, as winemaker and viticulturist respectively.

The Mount Edelstone vineyard, which is situated in the Eden Vally, was planted in 1912 by Ronald Angas, a descendant of George Fife Angus, who founded South Australia. The Shiraz is deep red with violet hues. Intense, classic aromas of rich, ripe satsuma plums, blue and black berry fruits are supported by cedar, tar and Mount Edelstone’s characteristic bay leaf, sage and pepper spice. The elegant palate is focused with lashings of lush, ripe plum fruit, black pepper, sage oil and exotic Indian spices; complex and textured with fine, velvety tannins for an extended and concentrated finish.
