2010 Henschke Hill of Grace Shiraz 750ml
A deep ruby color with vibrant red highlights. The wine exudes fragrant and delicate aromas of boysenberry, blueberry, black forest, bramble, and five spice, with subtle hints of violet, sandalwood, leather, and cedar. The palate is rich and concentrated, featuring black plum, cherry, and blue fruits, enhanced by layers of sage, star anise, exotic spices, and black pepper. The velvety, fine-grained tannins provide a long and elegant finish.

Critic tasting note: (2010 vintage) "Deep dark ruby, opaque core, purple reflections, faint brightening on the rim. A hint of undergrowth, dark berry fruit, sweet savoury nuances, hints of sweet cherry, tobacco note, a touch of mint oil. Juicy, tight-knit, ripe plum, tightly structured, ripe tannins, pleasant fruit expression, enchanting freshness and length, sweet cherry confit and orange on the finish, still very youthful, huge potential." - 100/100, Falstaff
