Sourced from the Eden Valley, sub region of the Barossa Valley. Completed in a natural fermentation process, while aging in new mild French oak puncheons for 16 months and maturing for a further 6 months before releasing. An elegant, earthy character with vibrant acidity leading into optimal, balanced tannins. Made as natural as possible, leaving the terroir to shine through.

Henschke have in recent years begun to identify and single out great quality parcels of Shiraz fruit that deserves to be bottled seperately and released as part of their Vineyard Selection. The Tappa Pass Shiraz is sourced from old low yielding Barossa vineyards that shows amazing depth and concentration. Rich, lush and intense it will develop further complexity with bottle age.

The wine is deep red in colour, with a vibrant streak of purple. Its primary aromas are reminiscent of cracked pepper and dark ripe plums with a subtle spicy smokiness and lovely floral notes. The palate features cherry, dark chocolate and vanilla flavours. The secondary bouquet is earthy and savoury, with a good flavour intensity but underplayed oak, while its tannin structure is smooth but firm. In the case of this Shiraz, cellaring is definitely a rewarding option. Leaner red meat, a carpaccio of venison, stew, and mildly spicy ethnic foods are best paired with this wine. Soft cheeses like Camembert or smoked cheddar are also recommended.

Some great Barossa Cabernets have come out of the Saltram winery over the years and this multi award winning wine continues in that tradition. Enjoy the Peperjack Cabernet Sauvignon's rich berry fruit and chocolately regional character.

A well-rounded, silky and savoury Eden Valley Cabernet.

Henschke's flagship Cabernet is named after the late Cyril Henschke who purchased the Eden Valley property in the 1960s. Stephen and Prue Henschke then established the vineyard with Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc vines which produces this intensely perfumed Cabernet. Matured in 100% new French oak for 18 months, this exceptional wine shows blackcurrant and cedar characters balanced with superb fine grained tannin.

The Avenue to Gold 2018 displays vibrant crimson colour. Aromas of Fresh blackberry andAsian species which evolve to pipe tobacco, dried sage and rosemary. The wine enters the palate with power and presence carrying liquored blackberry and coal dust flavour at first impression. It turns savoury slowly delivering black peppercorns and umami notes which provide a lovely mouth watering finish. This wine has a very complex finish which touches on both fruit and savoury details. Avenue to Gold’s fine tannins and acidity will bring pleasure in its youth and allow long cellaring.
