Peggy’s Hill is Henschke’s entry-level riesling with classic Eden Valley restraint and is made for early drinking. This vintage has good colour and displays some impressive intensity of pure riesling fruits. There is fragrant bath salts and lime zest with a lip-smacking stony edge. It is then dry, with moderate rather than high acid thanks to the vintage and carries an attractive, food-friendly textural richness. Finishing with good concentration and length, match it up with snapper pie for a good night in.

Australian Grenache is killing it and this is a wine that if it is not the best grenache ever crafted in McLaren Vale, if not Australia, then it is very close. 98 Points from Winepilot.com but forget the score - it is a stunningly beautiful expression of Australian Grenache.
