Henschke Mount Edelstone Shiraz 2008
A typically smooth, deeply ripened, luscious and silky Mouton Edelstone whose meaty, musky bouquet of pastille-like cassis, dark plums and raspberries is laced with sneezy scents of black pepper, handsomely
supported by chocolate/vanilla/coconut ice oak and backed by nuances of mint and dried herbs. Dripping with plush, concentrated fruit and smooth oak, itÕs underpinned by a fine, firmish spine of powdery tannins, finishing long and elegant with lingering fruit and leathery undertones.
