About This Wine:

The 2021 Henschke Cyril Henschke Cabernet Sauvignon is a distinguished expression of Eden Valley's terroir, honouring the legacy of Cyril Henschke, a pioneer of single-vineyard, varietal wines in Australia. Sourced from the family's estate vineyard, planted by Cyril in the 1960s, this wine reflects the meticulous biodynamic farming practices and the unique microclimate of the region.

Comprising 99% Cabernet Sauvignon and a mere 1% Merlot, the wine presents a vibrant magenta-crimson hue. The bouquet is lifted and aromatic, offering notes of plum, blackberry, blackcurrant, sage, bay leaf, dried herbs, violets, and crushed stone. On the palate, it is full-bodied with impressive concentration and a voluminous core of fruit sweetness, complemented by abundant, velvety tannins. The finish is graceful and enduring, showcasing superfine, powdery, granitic tannins.

James Halliday's Wine Companion awarded this vintage 96 points, describing it as a "landmark vintage for Cyril" and noting its "beautiful bright magenta/crimson" appearance with a "pretty, lifted aromatic profile".

James Suckling also rated it 96 points, highlighting its "savoury and earth-driven aromas of blackcurrants, thyme, plums, licorice and graphite".

This 2021 release is a testament to Henschke's commitment to quality and tradition, offering a sophisticated and engaging experience for discerning wine enthusiasts. It is poised to evolve gracefully over the next two decades, rewarding those who choose to cellar it.
