Henschke, Keyneton Euphonium | 2018 | SRP: $71.99 Australia, Barossa 30308319 6 pk $288

The legendary Henschke winery lays claim to the oldest single vineyard wines in all of Australia with their “Hill of Grace” and “Mount Edelstone” bottlings. While collector icons, the limited production and price tag prohibits many access to these fable bottlings. The same attention to detail and commitment goes into their “Keyneton Euphonium”— a Shiraz and Bordeaux-inspired blend that offers a delicious mouthfeel with great length and complexity. 65% Shiraz, 23% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9% Cabernet Franc, 3% Merlot. 95 WE, 95 JS
