*We offer Free Shipping over $300! (Excl. NT)
Hill of Grace is surely one of the most evocative phrases in the world of wine. It is a translation from the German ¡®Gnadenberg¡¯, a region in Silesia, and the name given to the lovely Lutheran church that overlooks the vineyard. The 4ha single-vineyard shiraz planting is situated at the historic village of Parrot Hill 4km north-west of Henschke Cellars.
Drinking Window: 1993-2036
Vineyard NotesIn our viticulture today we are blessed to be able to apply the practical wisdom and knowledge passed down from past generations alongside the benefits of our international learnings and research. In a dry-grown vineyard on its own roots, Prue has observed the benefits of mulching, composting and the use of permanent swards including native grasses, to build up the health of soils and preserve soil moisture. Vintage Notes: An eventful year: excellent winter rains, hail damage in spring, rains during flowering, very hot summer with week and a half of century heat in January. February was cool and misty. Another 10 days¡¯ heat wave occurred at the end of March.
AgeingMatured in 85% French and 15% American (29% new, 71% seasoned) hogsheads for 18 months prior to blending and bottling.
Producer Tasting NotesCrimson with brick red hues. Sweet blackberry aromas are complimented by herbaceous notes of snow pea and green bean with underlying nuances of soy, leather and turned earth. The palate is rich yet elegant with a beautiful balance of concentrated fruit flavours, acidity and fine-grained tannins, that together provide energy and an impressively long finish.
