HENSCHKE Cyril Henschke Cabernet Sauvignon, Eden Valley 1993 Bottle
1 * Bottle
About this wine
Cyril Henschke Cabernet is a beautifully perfumed wine with intense pure blackcurrant cedar meaty characters, fine-grained tannins and savoury, vanillin oak complexity. Fourth generation winemaker and visionary Cyril Henschke purchased this elevated 500 metre Eden Valley property on Cranes Range Road in the late 1960s. His son Stephen and Prue Henschke established the existing dry-grown single vineyard with Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc vines in 1988. The well-exposed north-facing vineyard, farmed using organic and biodynamic principles, is planted on well-drained duplex soils; typically sandy loams over gravel and bedrock with patches of clay. After vinification in "headed down" open fermenters, the wine completes fermentation and is matured for 18 months in 60% new and 40% seasoned French oak.
