Henschke

Keyneton Estate Euphonium Shiraz Cabinet Merlot 2013

The 2013 Henschke Keyneton Estate Euphonium is a masterful blend of Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Merlot, and Merlot from the Barossa. This vintage was characterized by a dry and warm growing season, resulting in a wine of profound depth and structural integrity. Henschke is world-renowned for their commitment to old-vine viticulture and organic practices, which shine through in the complexity of this Estate blend. The nose is an expressive mix of blackcurrant, dried herbs, and cracked black pepper. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied with plush tannins and a savory, earthy core. The 2013 vintage has aged beautifully, allowing the primary fruit to evolve into notes of tobacco and cedar. This is a classic Barossa red that balances power with a refined, elegant finish.
