Henschke HENRYS SEVEN Barossa Valley
Description: Wine Description Deep crimson in colour. Sweet lifted fragrant plum, raspberry and anise aromas, with hints of stone-fruits and dusty, cedary oak. The medium-weight palate has intense rich fruit flavours of plums and anise. The texture is silky, showing velvety tannins, good structure and length. Grape Varieties 67% shiraz, 28% grenache and 5% viognier grown in the Barossa. Background The shiraz grenache viognier is a tribute to Henry Evans who planted the first vineyard of seven acres at Keyneton in 1853. He quickly developed a reputation for producing the best wines in the southern colony. Following the death of Henry in 1868 his widow Sarah exercised her temperance convictions by closing the winery and uprooting all the wine grapes. This blend highlights the historical introduction of southern French and Spanish varieties to South Australia in those early pioneering days and reflects the history, religion and culture of the Barossa. (6 x 75 cl)

Henschke JOHANNS GARDEN Barossa Valley South Australia
Description: Wine Description Deep purple crimson in colour. A sweet ripe spicy bouquet of raspberries, plums blackberries and anise with hints of mace, nutmeg and tar. A fleshy concentrated palate of sweet ripe black berry fruits with lush velvety mature tannins and a long finish. Grape Variety 65% grenache, 22% mourvèdre and 13% shiraz grapes from selected vineyards growing in the Barossa Valley. Background Named as a tribute to the early Barossa Lutheran pioneers, many of whom carried the nameJohann as their first name. Their toil, perseverance and conservatism in hardship has meant that the many generations that followed rejoiced in the riches of their prudent efforts. The grenache is just one of those blessings and has been appropriately named after Johann Alfred Zobel, whose 65-year-old vines, growing on the banks of the North Para, form the base of this wine. Barossa growers traditionally referred to their vineyard as their 'garden'. The traditions and culture have survived to this day including the winemaking techniques used in this grenache blend.
