Henschke Hill of Grace Shiraz 2008
Tasting notes from the producer
100% shiraz from pre-phylloxera material brought from Europe in the mid-1800's and grown on Henschke Hill of Grace Vineyard in the Eden Valley wine region, managed with organic and biodynamic practices. Matured in new (84% French, 16% American) oak hogsheads for 21 months prior to blending and bottling. Bottle aged in Henschke cellar for a museum release.
Deep ruby with bright red hues. Beautifully fragrant and etheral aromas of boysenberry, blueberry, black forest, bramble and five spice, with underlying notes of violet, sandalwood, leather and cedar. A plush and concentrated palate of black plum, cherry and blue fruits are layered with sage, star anise, exotic spice and black pepper. Velvety, fine-grained tannins deliver a long and elegant finish.
