Drank from a half bottle from my cellar - shared with Ray, Lionel and Rachel after meeting them at Bottles and Bottles. Lovely - I have always enjoyed a St Henri. So very different from other modern South Australian Shiraz with clean, bright fruit, smoke and white pepper. Great balance, with lots of fresh acid, and a nice finish.

Dinner w/ Friends (Cotes du Rhone - Chicago, IL): Classic and attractive syrah nose of dark fruits, smoke and pepper. Great concentration of sweet dark fruits on the palate. Loosely knit, but generous through the medium length finish.

Spectacular Aged Brunner (East Lindfield): Colanut, cherries, spice, gentle leather. Complex, sweet ashy, tight leather tannin, turmeric, cigar smoke and certainly age. Lovely and beautifully structured!

Dark fruit (bluebrrry), slight olive, some herb/ spice. Some good acidity. Lingering finish. Really enjoyable.

Classic mature St Henri. Beautiful colour and still drinking well despite 1993 being a lesser vintage.
