Henschke Keyneton Estate (Euphonium)

Keyneton Euphonium is a beautiful composition of shiraz from up to 50-year-old vines growing in the Eden and Barossa Valleys, blended with cabernet sauvignon, cabernet franc and merlot from selected vineyards in both regions. The Barossa hills village of Keyneton, established by pastoralist Joseph Keynes in 1842, was a musical and cultural focus for the community, and home to the Henschke Family Brass Band and Henschke Winery. Winemakers Notes: Dark crimson with bright ruby hues. Fragrant aromas of blackberry, raspberry, plum, rhubarb and cassis are entwined with hints of sage, cooking spice, black pepper, anise and violets. An elegant palate opens with fresh cut plum and mulberry, leading into blackberry, bramble, cassis and bay leaf, balanced by bright acidity and an exceptionally long, fine tannin finish. 92 Points - The Wine Front 63% Shiraz 29% Cabernet Sauvignon 5% Cabernet Franc 3% Merlot
