The warm 2019 vintage wasn't lauded as Barossa's best, but Henschke, on its lofty Eden Valley perch, has emerged with a small but beautifully supple range of ‘19s. Leading the charge is Aus's most famous single vineyard. A nose of dusty, dried herbs and violets, bay leaf and tomato atop blackberry and blueberry fruit—with a lick of polished oak—opens. There's a slinkiness to the palate, thanks to the ultrafine, savory, ripe tannins, which make this an approachable Grace now, but one that can still go the distance, two or three decades at least.

What Is Blind Tasting?

All tastings reported in the Buying Guide are performed blind. Typically, products are tasted in peer-group flights of from 5-8 samples. Reviewers may know general information about a flight to provide context—vintage, variety or appellation—but never the producer or retail price of any given selection. When possible, products considered flawed or uncustomary are retasted.
