1992 Henschke 'Mount Edelstone' Shiraz

“The beautiful and historical name Mount Edelstone is a translation from the German Edelstein meaning 'gemstone'. The dry-grown ungrafted centenarian vines were planted in 1912 by Ronald Angas, a descendant of George Fife Angas, who founded South Australia.”
(Henschke)

94 Points, James Halliday, Halliday Wine Companion

Youthful purple-red; fresh, scented cherry/berry/spice aromas, reflecting a relatively cool vintage but showing lovely varietal character. There is delicious spicy/cherry/berry fruit on the palate with sweet vanillin oak. A luscious wine with everything going for it.
