Henschke Hill of Grace 1992 is a single-vineyard Shiraz from Eden Valley in the Barossa region of South Australia. Henschke is synonymous with fine winemaking in Australia. The family is one of the `First Families` - 10 of the country`s oldest and most respected family-owned, multi-generation wineries. The Hill of Grace single-vineyard Shiraz is the family`s flagship wine. Intense, concentrated and age-worthy, it is considered by many to be Australia`s greatest red wine. "Excellent vintage. A spicy and fragrant nose, perhaps the cooler January at work here, plenty of sage also in the mix, very concentrated and slightly more discreet than the 1991 and 1990. The palate has impressive concentration and cut, really bright and crisp with decent tannin ripeness and a juicy, sturdy and assertive drive through the finish. A great expression of fragrant, Eden Valley Shiraz." James Suckling, 2014

The 1992 Shiraz is the product of a long, dry and cool summer in Eden Valley, which has crafted an elegant and reserved Hill of Grace style. It opens with an array of fleshy fruit pastilles and blackberry aromas before meat stock and wintergreens emerge. The wine has a real freshness and brightness, with a firm acidic line. Vigorous tannins provide ample structure that is just beginning to overshadow the fruit. Best to enjoy over the next couple of years, although it will cellar for considerably longer.Vinous1st April 2023

Still hint of purple. Very, very sweet on the nose and fruity rather than minerals or veg. A charmer though not one with great depths. Good structure underneath. This wine has a lot packed in there for future development actually. The palate is much more interesting than the nose suggests, and there is still some tannin to be resolved. (JR)
