We had at Cyril Lignac’s restaurant in Paris for father’s day.
Tell tale Vosne aux Malconsorts, very accessible now but with very many years ahead of it. We are enthusiastic about it ! — a year ago

Julius Eden Valley Riesling 2023

Still trying to catch up with all of the Henschke wines we tasted a week ago at Spicer’s Peak Lodge. This was a classic Eden Valley Riesling from Henschke’s own Eden Valley vineyard. Aromatics of Lime and talc with a note of jasmine. Stephen again emphasised the quality of the 2023 vintage. Cyril was instrumental in developing the Henschke Riesling vineyards back in the 1950’s. — a year ago

Henschke

Cyril Henschke Eden Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 1986

Doug Powers

9.5

100% Cabernet Sauvignon, aged 1 year in new French and American oak barrels, while I get the Barossa fruit feel, this also reminds, at this age, of 1980s Napa/Sonoma Cabs, close to mature, very well-balanced, complex, long, lingering finish, terrific Barossa Cabernet!! Purchased at Henschke in 1989 (my first and only visit) and shipped home via a now-defunct import/shipping company in Alameda, California (I also bought some 1986 Mt. Edelstone Shiraz and 1985 Hill of Grace Shiraz on that same trip!!) — 8 months ago

@Bob McDonald, I have had both, I might have 1 bottle of each left, though due to consolidation of wines in random boxes I can’t be sure — finding this Cab was a fluke. But I hope I do find the two Shiraz (I think I originally bought 6 each HoG and Cab, and 12 MtE).

Doug Powers

@Bob McDonald, I don’t know if you can see my Taste Insights in Delectable, but if you can, check under Shiraz-South Australia — I checked in the 1986 Mt. Edelstone about 8 1/3 years ago and thought it was almost perfect (9.9, same as 1977 Grange), so I must have consumed a 1985 HoG before joining Delectable.

Bob McDonald

I’ll check it out Doug when I get a tick.
