Henschke Keyneton Euphonium Shiraz 2018
Barossa, Australia
95/100 | Dave Brookes
95/100 | James Suckling
94/100 | Stuart Knox
Henschke well and truly sits amongst the top wineries in Australia and the family-run operation has six generations of winemaking knowledge to draw from. Their vineyards were some of the first planted in the region and continue to produce some of the finest Australian wines today.
Keyneton Euphonium (named after the musical early settlers of the Keyneton part of the Barossa region) is a shiraz-dominant blend, with cabernet sauvignon, cabernet franc and merlot in support. It's a big, concentrated wine with vibrant fruit notes on the palate and a long, tannic finish. It's in great form now but could easily be cellared for 10 - 15 years.

Tasting Notes
Vinted from a blend of 65% shiraz, 23% cabernet sauvignon, 9% cabernet franc and 3% merlot.
Dave Brookes writes "Detail is a wonderful thing. If you stick your nose in the glass and close your eyes, perhaps tilt your head just so, you can pick out the individual components of this wine, yet they mesh together perfectly. Juicy berry and plum fruits, abundant spice, fine-grind tannin grip, a fine lacy acid line and an elegant, perfectly poised, slow fade out of pure fruit."
The winery writes "Deep crimson with vibrant ruby hues. Lifted aromas of ripe blackberry, blackcurrant, cassis, Satsuma plum, blueberry, anise and violets with hints of black pepper and cedar. Rich and concentrated flavours of dark plum, blackberry and blackcurrant, with a pure, plush and focused mid-palate, bright, balanced acidity, and excellent length, carried by fine-grained, ripe tannins. One of the all-time great vintages of this wine."
