Your Wine Guy says:
An elegant red from iconic Eden Valley family winery Henschke. A dark crimson with purple edges in the glass. Aromas of briary plums, currants and cassis with subtle notes of star anise. The palate is luscious and complex with layers of berries, plums and mulberry fruit supported by a balanced acidity and fine, silky tannins.

Colour: Deep crimson in colour.
Nose: A complex bouquet of cassis, blackberries and cedar with savoury nuances of tar and roasted meats.
Palate: Sweet, ripe, lush fruit and velvety, fine-grained tannins create a palate of excellent balance and length. Exceptional vintage, drink now to 2022. – Henschke Wines
