Henschke, `Hill of Grace` Eden Valley Shiraz, 2008 Bottle U.S.A. The palate is racy butDeep ruby with vibrant crimson hues. Ethereal aromas of blackberry, raspberry compote, star anise and cocoa, entwined with crushed flowering herbs, fresh bay leaf, dried sage and rose petal. The palate is rich, complex, powerful and mouth coating with incredible freshness and elegant, silky layers of dark blackberry and red currant, a savoury line of charcuterie, and mature, velvety tannins revealing seamless length and depth.
