      Henschke Hill of Grace Shiraz 2009

      Medium to deep garnet-purple in colour, the nose on the 2009 Hill of Grace is a little closed, though it reveals notes of warm black plums, blackberry coulis and cloves with subtle nuances of dried Provence herbs, forest floor and lavender. Medium to full-bodied, it possesses layers of medium to full-bodied black fruit and earth-laced flesh elegantly structured by a medium to firm level of finely grained tannins, nicely balanced acid and a long finish. Drink it now to 2026+.

      Full crimson-purple; the fragrant bouquet of spiced red and black flower and fruit aromas, the palate so perfectly proportioned and weighted it is easy to just drink it, knowing it ticks each and every box for a classic medium-bodied shiraz. But there's much more to be discovered: the cedar, earth and licorice subtext to the primary web of black fruits and superfine tannins will do for a start.

      Tasting notes

      NOSE
      Fragrant, Spicy, Complex

      An enticing bouquet of spiced red and black flowers, ripe black fruits, and a subtle hint of liquorice. Additional layers of cedar, earth, and sweet vanilla oak emerge, creating a complex, multi-dimensional profile that continues to evolve with each swirl.

      PALATE
      Full-Bodied, Plush, Elegant

      An ultra-smooth, full-bodied experience. Blackberries, dark plums, and mulberries is beautifully complemented by exotic cinnamon-like spices, dark pepper, and nuances of raisins. 

      FINISH
      Long, Sweetly Fruited, Structured

      Sweet, syrupy fruit profile of small dark berries and plums gently fading, leaving behind a satisfying, gamey sweetness. Tannins and oak continue to provide structure, promising continued development in the bottle.
