Henschke Shiraz Mount Edelstone 2016

Product description

96 Points - Wine Enthusiast

Mount Edelstone may not get the glory Hill of Grace receives, but its place in Barossa history as a 110-year-old vineyard and the quality of resulting wines is no less illustrious. The '16 is a deep well of aromas from ripe cherry to wild strawberry, from licorice to cracked pepper, and from violet to vanilla bean. After the heady perfume, the power on the palate comes almost as a surprise. The concentrated fruit is held in a firm grip of spicy, fine, charcoal-textured tannins, the oak tucked neatly away. This is a beautifully crafted wine, expressive of Eden Valley and Henschke, that should cellar well into the 2040s.
