    Camphor, pitch and raspberry appear on the nose of Henschke's 2015 Mount Edelstone Vineyard Shiraz. It's a muscular, full-bodied expression of Eden Valley Shiraz, with notes of black olives and cassis on the palate and enough tannins to give this amply-endowed wine a savory edge. There's a lovely sense of tension between the fruity and savory elements and a long, velvety finish, making this one of the stars of the lineup—and a relative bargain compared to the Hill of Grace. The dry-farmed vineyard was planted in 1912 and has been bottled as a single-vineyard wine since 1952, making it one of the oldest such wines in Australia. Drink 2022-2035.

    A very profound sage note here with wild brambleberries, bay leaf and subtle oak influence, cast across a green-peppercorn and mint-tea nuance with such bright red berries and plums. The palate has a super plush and elegant shape and fine, velvety-tannin texture with plush, long red plums. Such poise and elegance with length and concentration here. An exceptional vintage for Mount Edelstone. Drink or hold.

    Opaque ruby. Dark berry preserves, fruitcake, pipe tobacco candied flowers and a hint of vanilla on the deeply perfumed nose. Stains the palate with sappy black and blue fruit, mocha, licorice and rose pastille flavors and exotic spice and mineral nuances add energetic lift. Fleshy and deep but lively as well, with an impressively long, gently tannic finish that shows superb focus and dark fruit-driven persistence. Drink 2024 - 2037.

    This is a wine for which I have a particular penchant and this 2015 vintage is yet another cracker. The oak in this wine is completely integrated already and this means that, like HoG, there is an immediacy and allure which you normally have to extract from this wine by torturing it in a decanter and then finding the largest glasses you have and, excepting the fact that you will have a serious case of RSI, engage in vigorous bouts of swirling. I love the way in which the textbook weather conditions in the 2015 vintage have tamed this heroic wine. This is a dreamy, succulent, expansive Mount Edelstone with volume and silkiness and there is scintillating black pepper detail here, too. Without the inkiness and power of Hill of Grace, but with hints of red fruit in among the black theme, this is a more loquacious offering which does not stand on ceremony and gets straight to the task of romancing your taste buds. With more than a nod to the flavour profile of the epic 2010 vintage, this is a cracking wine and it is one of the finest I have tasted from this awesome single vineyard. Drink 2022-2040.

  • Jancis Robinson, May 2020, Score: 17++

    Decanting recommended and in this case I can see why. It's still much more youthful than the other two Henschke 2015s I have tasted so far – Euphonium and Cyril Henschke. The tight, introvert aromas of balsam and dried grasses are just starting to come out. There's a definite touch of mint there too. This is drier and less flattering than the other two at the moment, with a minerally undertow. Strongly savoury finish and beautifully made but not nearly ready. I may come back and revise this note once the wine has sat in a decanter for a while but I'd advise stashing it in a cellar for now. And, gosh, it needs food! But it certainly mellowed in the glass and overnight. Lovely after 24 hours. Drink 2022-2034.

  • Goedhuis Waddesdon, August 2024

    This world-renowned vineyard is the longest consecutively produced single-site wine in all of Australia. Expectations are always high with this cuvée and the 2015 delivers in spades. Blackberry and blueberry fruit dominate the nose, with subtle notes of tobacco and vanilla spice coming to the fore with each swirl. The palate possesses Henschke’s typical power but with refinement and a velvety texture, while more black fruits add a plushness to the finish. With nine years to get its ducks in a row, the 2015 is hitting its sweet spot and will reward anyone who chooses to drink now.
