Henschke Hill of Grace 2015 750ml

From vines planted in the 1860s, the 2015 Hill of Grace Shiraz raises the bar beyond the heights reached by the stellar 2015 Mount Edelstone, exceeding it in elegance and (forgive me) grace. It’s one of those rare wines that manages to be mouthfilling and voluminous while seeming weightless. Airy notions of mixed spices, woodsmoke and herbs swirl above a mélange of red and black berries and a deep base of black olives and mocha, finishing with enormous silkiness and length.
