Description
The 2023 Henschke Henry’s Seven is a tribute to the pioneering spirit of Henry Evans, who planted the first seven acres of vineyard at Keyneton in the Eden Valley back in 1853. This blend of Shiraz, Grenache, Mataro, and a touch of co-fermented Viognier is a testament to that history, capturing the elegance and complexity that the region is famous for.
This vintage shines with 81% Shiraz, bringing luscious dark fruits and structure, while 11% Grenache adds a juicy red-fruit lift, and 6% Mataro brings earthy, savoury notes. The 2% Viognier, co-fermented with the Shiraz, enhances the wine’s aromatics with floral and spice nuances. It’s matured in 100% seasoned French oak for eight months, letting the vibrant fruit character take centre stage without being overshadowed by heavy oak influence.
Bright and voluptuous, this wine is all about balance—rich in flavour yet smooth, with soft tannins and a long, luxurious finish. Perfect for drinking now, but with 15+ years of cellaring potential, it will reward those patient enough to let it age. For a wine that offers both history and modern winemaking finesse, the 2023 Henry’s Seven delivers exceptional value and a delicious glimpse into the heritage of the Barossa and Eden Valley regions.

"A smart, cohesive wine from a complex meld of components... A pretty nose gives lift to wild sage notes, in addition to calm berries. The palate is sharply drawn, with clean straight lines propelled by a strong acid seam, ensuring lively freshness to the flavours and finish... Supremely balanced and perfectly poised."
- David Sly (Decanter)

"Always one of the most enjoyable and pleasing wines from the annual Henschke portfolio release... It’s typically bright and spicy with plush smooth and supple medium-bodied fruit flavours. Juicy and delicious." - Ray Jordan (Wine Pilot)"

I've had several vintages of this wine over the years and it never ceases to impress. Medium bodied and a beautifully integrated blend of grapes makes it a wine to go with just about anything really. Pretty good value for the price, coming from this revered wine stable.
