The Mount Edelstone vineyard was planted in 1912 by Ronald Angas, a descendant of George Fife Angas who founded The South Australian Company and played a significant part in the formation and establishment of South Australia. Unusual for its time, the vineyard was planted solely to shiraz. The ancient 500-million-year-old geology in the vineyard has given rise to soils that are deep red-brown clay-loam to clay, resulting in low yields from the dry-grown, ungrafted centenarian vines. First bottled as a single-vineyard wine in 1952 by fourth-generation Cyril Henschke; by the time Cyril purchased the vineyard from Colin Angas in 1974, Mount Edelstone was already well entrenched as one of Australia’s greatest shiraz wines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!----\u003e","brand":"Vic Liquors Pty Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47060444250347,"sku":"SK65538389","price":399.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0780\/1022\/0779\/files\/1991_HenschkeMountEdelstoneShiraz750ml_468598e6-00a8-43ef-9658-fd24e763a796.png?v=1763083551","url":"https:\/\/lionscellar.com.au\/products\/1986-henschke-mount-edelstone-shiraz-750ml","provider":"Lion's Cellar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
