Henschke's 2022 Noble Semillon is a brilliant expression of Eden Valley’s unique terroir, crafted from Semillon grapes affected by noble rot, a phenomenon that intensifies the fruit’s natural sugar and acidity. The resulting wine showcases a complex and rich profile with layers of vibrant fruit and subtle spice. Aged in seasoned French oak hogsheads for 20 months, this Semillon balances a lively acidity with a luscious mouthfeel, making it an exceptional choice for both immediate enjoyment and long-term cellaring. With a golden hue and a lingering finish, this wine represents a rare and beautiful vintage from one of the most revered wineries in Australia.

Henschke is a prestigious, family-owned winery with a rich legacy that spans over 153 years and six generations. Founded in 1862 by Johann Christian Henschke, the winery began with a modest vineyard in Keyneton, South Australia, and has since grown into one of Australia’s most celebrated wine estates. Located in the renowned Eden Valley wine region, Henschke's vineyards extend across some of the most esteemed wine-growing areas, including the Barossa Valley and Adelaide Hills.

With a legacy built on quality and innovation, Henschke continues to shape the future of Australian winemaking while maintaining their foundational values of excellence and respect for the land.
