Henschke George 5th Grenache 2025

Share

A Barossa double regioned delight – 80% from the Barossa Valley’s celebrated Vine Vale district where the variety rises to its finer glories, supported by 20% from the Eden Valley. It reveals barely any barrel influence which opens up a more gravelled and savoury build in the wine, a blood lip character from nose to tail – a varietal trait well displayed. All these elements create a moreish, gastronomic expression that has a natural affinity with all manner of braised and smoked meats, as well as classic tomato based pasta.
