2017 HENSCHKE MOUNT EDELSTONE
"From a 110-year-old vineyard of ungrafted Shiraz, Mount Edelstone is one of Australia's national treasures. True to Henschke's signature style, there's a spiced vegetal streak that's unique, almost mysterious. Aromas of grilled plum, blueberry and red-onion jam mingle with cumin-spiced roast beets, tomato leaf, white pepper and dried floral nuances. The palate is densely structured with a plush silkiness to the fruit that's reined in by earthy spiced, fine tannins. Poised and harmonious, with at least a decade of age ahead of it."
