Henschke Mount Edelstone Shiraz 2022

"This is a beautiful wine, and one of the most lovely Mount Edelstone Vineyard Shirazes I have tasted on release." 98 Points - Erin Larkin, The Wine Advocate

"The 70th anniversary release of this much-loved and iconic Australian wine.
A hail event reduced yields somewhat, with perfect instances of summer rainfall and a mild, drawn-out finish to the growing season. The end result was an exceptionally strong vintage. Bright magenta crimson with aromas of pure plum, blackberry and black cherry and a flash of blue fruits over sage, peppercorn, rosehip, mace, bay leaf, crushed stone, herb garden, gentle cedar tones, milk chocolate, pan juices and, further back, tobacco and crushed rocks. Beautifully balanced on the palate, showing a graceful arc of travel, the fine tannins melting away into the fruit. The finish stretches out persistently, all detail and elegance." 97 Points - Dave Brookes, Halliday Wine Companion

The 2022 release marks the 70th anniversary vintage of Mount Edelstone wine being released, one of Australia's longest consecutively produced single-vineyard wines. First bottled by fourth-generation winemaker Cyril Henschke in 1952, Mount Edelstone today epitomises the incredible aromatic beauty of shiraz from the higher altitude and cooler climate of the Barossa's Eden Valley.
