Henschke is a name synonymous with excellence in Australian winemaking, particularly when it comes to Shiraz. The Henschke Mount Edelstone Shiraz 2016 is a testament to the family’s unwavering commitment to quality and tradition. This particular vintage traces its roots back to the mid-20th century, with a story deeply intertwined with the rich heritage of the Eden Valley in South Australia.
The Henschke Mount Edelstone Shiraz 2016 is a wine of extraordinary depth and complexity. On the nose, it offers an intense bouquet of dark fruits, including blackberry, plum, and mulberry, complemented by hints of black pepper, anise, and fragrant floral notes of violets and dried herbs. Subtle undertones of earth, graphite, and oak-derived spice add to the aromatic intricacy.
On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and richly textured, with layers of black fruit flavours interwoven with savory spices and fine-grained tannins. The oak maturation, which includes 18 months in a combination of 81% French and 19% American oak (34% new and 66% seasoned), imparts a refined structure and a lengthy, velvety finish.
Awards and Recognition
The Henschke Mount Edelstone Shiraz 2016 has garnered acclaim both domestically and internationally, solidifying its status as a benchmark for Australian Shiraz. Some notable accolades include:
- 97 points from James Halliday's Wine Companion, highlighting its complexity, balance, and age-worthiness.
- 96 points from The Wine Advocate, praising its depth of flavour and elegant structure.
- Gold Medal at the Royal Melbourne Wine Awards, recognizing its excellence among Australian wines.
- Best in Show at the Decanter World Wine Awards, affirming its global reputation.
The Henschke Mount Edelstone Shiraz 2016 is not merely a wine; it is a celebration of a historic vineyard and the dedication of a family committed to excellence. Its origins in the century-old vines of the Eden Valley, coupled with meticulous winemaking practices, result in a wine that is both powerful and nuanced, capable of aging gracefully for decades. Whether enjoyed now or cellared for future enjoyment, this vintage exemplifies the pinnacle of Australian Shiraz.
