2021 Henschke 'Henry's 7' Red Blend Barossa

Winemaker Notes: Deep crimson with ruby hues. Attractive aromas of spiced plum, red currant, and blue and blackberry fruits are met with floral nuances of violets and black pepper spice. The round, supple palate is filled with juicy blue and red fruits, spiced plum, liquorice and notes of crushed tarragon, with beautifully textured svelte tannins and a long, peppery finish.

Blend: 72% Shiraz, 13% Grenache, 12% Mataro, 3% Viognier

CRITICAL ACCLAIM


James Suckling - "Aromas of black fruit and green tobacco with bark and wet-earth undertones, following through to a medium to full body, creamy tannins and a juicy, savory finish. Intense and balanced."


Robert Parker's Wine Advocate - "The 2021 Henry's Seven has a purity to the expression of blackberry fruit in the mouth—it is vibrant and luminescent and succulent. There are notes of tobacco leaf, raspberry leaf tea, bramble, aniseed and a crack of pink peppercorns. The fruit doesn't persist as I hoped it would through the finish, but the flavors are so lovely it hardly matters."
