Henschke "Henry's Seven" Barossa 2005

Red.

Moderate intensity nose - kirsch, nut liqueur and earth. Suave.

Round, sweet entry, with little weight. Raspberry and nut liqueur flavors. Harmonious. Nice mid-palate flesh and length.
Quite satisfying. Pinot folks will like this.

65% Shiraz, 25% Grenache, 5% Mourvedre, 5% Viognier. I'd guess this had a far greater Grenache component.
