Henschke "Keyneton Euphonium" Barossa 2009

Purple/red.

Vinturi - moderate intensity nose shows nice depth - fig, black raspberry, earth/toasted nut and fresh herb aromas. Integrated.

Round with beautiful textural sweetness well-buffered by sneaky acidity. Sneaky length too. The kind of wine that grows on you. Really nicely done and should drink well for several more years.

$40.   61% Shiraz, 23% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Merlot, 8% Cabernet Franc
