2005 Henschke 'Hill of Grace' Shiraz (Museum)

99 Points - James Suckling, jamessuckling.com (May 25, 2017)
This stamps an irrefutable claim on the very top rung of Australian shiraz with striking blackberry fruits and a good dose of spicy complexity. There’s a bit of bracken here, fragrant rose petals, lighter fragrance, some deeper, profound aromas and impressive complexity. The palate has impossibly long drive and intricate detail, delivering an innate sense of harmony and seemingly endless length. Toasted spices float across a swathe of blackberry fruit. A landmark single-vineyard shiraz with soul and distinction. Saturated with flavour and still ascending to its prime. Drinking well now and for two decades or more.

18/20 - Max Allen, jancisrobinson.com (Feb 2023)
Very lifted, almost exaggerated sweet black squishy mulberry fruit – reminds me less of Shiraz and more of top Tempranillo – lovely density, with complex hints of that strawberry-gum spice and some earthy gaminess.
