DESCRIPTION
Henschke Henry's Seven 2023 is a blend of Shiraz (81%), Grenache (11%), Mataro (6%), and Viognier (2%), sourced primarily from the Barossa Valley (84%) and partly from the Eden Valley (16%). The Viognier is co-fermented with the Shiraz, while the Grenache and Mataro are fermented separately. The wine is then aged in seasoned oak barrels and a few new barrels, before blending and bottling. It pays tribute to Henry Evans, a wine pioneering figure of Keyneton in 1853. It features 14.5% alcohol and 6.4 g/L of total acidity.
On the nose, red and black fruits accompanied by floral nuances of lavender, rose petals, violet, and sweet spices such as white pepper and anise. On the palate, lively and juicy, supported by a fresh acidity and fine, silky tannins. Pairs beautifully with a beef filet mignon or a lamb tagine.

A generous blend that expresses the best of both valleys: fruity, floral, and spicy.
