Henschke Hill of Grace Eden Valley Shiraz 2022 scores 99 points from Tyson Stelzer in WBM. “I love the detail and purity that are conveyed by the fanatical work of the Henschkes and it’s presented in heightened realism in the cool and late 2022 harvest. The Hill of Grace signatures of five spice, pristine black fruits and mesmerisingly silky tannins are set against a captivating backdrop of dark fruits of all kinds, enlivened with wonderfully lively acidity. In harmony, flow and eternal persistence, this is benchmark Hill of Grace, with an enduring future spanning half a century before it.” $1,100. @henschke @edenvalleysa #99 #EdenValley #Shiraz ❤️
“For over twenty years we fought for this name, not for ourselves, but because it was the right name, the only name, for the wine in the glass. To now have it protected, recognised, and secured for Australia – I have no other words but grazie. Thank you.” Words from Otto Dal Zotto on the EU free trade agreement signed on Tuesday 24 March.

Zema Estate Cluny Coonawarra Cabernet Merlot 2021 scores 91 points from Tyson Stelzer in WBM. “The age-old adage of buying the bargain labels of the top producers in the great vintages rings true here. Crunchy, refined, bright and seamless, set to a textbook core of black- and red-currant fruit and cassis, this is a Cabernet blend still looking impressively youthful at four years of age with the firm tannin backbone that calls for further age yet.” $24. @zemaestate @coonawarra_wine #91 #refined #bright #seamless ❤️🙌
