Nothing like drinking Henschke in Australia. Haven’t had this wine, predominantly Grenache, about 5% shiraz. Really inexpensive (about 50 au dollars). Absolutely fantastic and the reason I love Henschke wines, amazing combination of tobacco strawberries, licorice and plum but really juicy and not-oily or overdone. I used to think McPrice Myers beautiful earth was the best wine for the money but this has it beat. Just brilliant.
