Drink 2018–2034
This bottle was opened in front of me and served without decanting. Containing 4% Cabernet Sauvignon and with a deep garnet-purple color, the 2014 Shiraz St Henriz has a relatively shy nose of black plums, black cherries and mulberries with nuances of underbrush, fruit cake and damp soil. The full-bodied palate has satisfying richness, with firm, rounded tannins supporting the earthy fruit layers, finishing with good depth and persistence.

Drink: Drink now 2045
Deep crimson. Lovely ripe blackberry, ginger, dark chocolate aromas with hints of black olive. Buoyant and concentrated blackberry, boysenberry, raspberry fruits, ginger sesame notes and loose-knit ripe fine silky/hint graphite tannins. Builds up firm with excellent mineral length. Superb fruit definition, volume, tannin ripeness and vinosity. Aniseed notes at the finish. "A classic signature St Henri with a ton of mouthwatering acidity and great uplift through the palate." (JA) A great vintage with the fruit density, richness of flavour, and torque for long-term cellaring. Drinking well now, but the best is yet to come. 14.5% alc "In proportion, well balanced and well executed. It doesn't have the glamour/star power of some vintages, but for enjoyability with a sense of classicism, I think this is wonderful." (GH) 96% Shiraz, 4% Cabernet Sauvignon Barossa Valley (49%), Adelaide Hills, Fleurieu, Wrattonbully, McLaren Vale, Mt Benson
