About this product
Dry, Full Bodied style of ShirazEden Valley, AustraliaThe 1994 vintage for the 'Hill of Grace' started dry and mild which was followed by two weeks of hot weather. Stephen Henschke describes it as a vintage of 'black ferments' and possibly one of the best vintages ever. The wine is supple and integrated, powerful yet elegant; delicious!

Full bodied red wines have a noticeably textural mouthfeel with bold, complex flavours. Often deeply coloured.
Dry wines have no trace of sweetness at all.

Exceptional vintage. Medium to full red/brick-red colour. Toasty cedar and earthy savoury bouquet. A hint of spice. The palate is lighter and more elegant in style, very fine and well balanced, easy to enjoy and pleasure giving. The primary fruit is still evident on the palate with lovely red cherry and raspberry nuances. An excellent wine. Intensity married with great elegance. The epitome of HOG for me.
