Produced by Henschke, this iconic wine originates from ungrafted vines first planted in 1912, delivering a remarkable combination of concentration, elegance, and longevity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2016 vintage is widely regarded as one of the greatest in recent Australian winemaking history. A mild growing season with excellent ripening conditions allowed the fruit to develop exceptional flavour intensity while retaining freshness and natural acidity. The ancient, well-drained soils and elevated Eden Valley location contribute to the wine's distinctive structure, perfume, and mineral complexity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHand-harvested fruit was gently fermented and matured in premium French oak hogsheads, allowing the vineyard character to remain the focus while enhancing texture and complexity. The result is a Shiraz of extraordinary balance, precision, and depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe bouquet is intensely aromatic, revealing layers of blackberry, satsuma plum, blueberry, and black cherry, intertwined with notes of star anise, black pepper, sage, dried herbs, violets, and subtle cedar spice. The palate is concentrated yet beautifully poised, with silky tannins, vibrant acidity, and exceptional length. Powerful without being heavy, it displays the hallmark elegance that defines great Eden Valley Shiraz.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlready magnificent in its youth, the 2016 Mount Edelstone Shiraz possesses the structure and balance to evolve gracefully for decades. While approachable with extended decanting, it will reward patient cellaring over the next 20–40 years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA benchmark Australian Shiraz from a legendary vineyard and an essential addition to any serious wine collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAwards \u0026amp; Accolades\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e99 Points – James Halliday Wine Companion\u003cbr\u003e98+ Points – Robert Parker Wine Advocate\u003cbr\u003e98 Points – Huon Hooke\u003cbr\u003eLangton's Classification: Outstanding\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Vic Liquors Pty Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52736228950379,"sku":"SK54306796","price":235.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0956\/5483\/8635\/files\/2016_Henschke_Mount_Edelstone_Shiraz_750ml.png?v=1780626234","url":"https:\/\/kingsburycellars.com.au\/products\/2016-henschke-mount-edelstone-shiraz-750ml","provider":"Kingsbury Cellars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
