Wineflock - Henschke 'Master Class' tasting (Home): Group #10, My #6 - Pink/red color. Canned bubblegum red cherry fruit on the nose. Decent round sweet fruit remaining, but definitely on the downward slope for this wine. Charming enough to still be enjoyable.

Absolutely wonderful, rich Pinot! Medium to full bodied, perfectly structured and integrated, rich aromas of earth and cherry. Candy-coated pinot fruit explodes on the palette. Opens up even better after an hour or so. 94 pts. (6/00) This wine is still nice, but the fruit is fading a bit and the acidity is showing through more. These Henschke pinots are best drunk young - drink up! 12/04

Not drinking as well as its peak, but better than the last bottle I had. Still some really nice fruit there with secondary nuances coming on.
