Monday, July 2, 2018 - NobleRottersSydney - Henschke (360 Bar & Dining, Sydney): {screwcap, 14%} [Gordon] Double-decanted a few hours earlier. Very similar in style to the 07, but a bit more open, with more tobacco and blackberry notes. Medium-full-bodied, still with medium/high powdery tannins; oak is subtle though. Does manage a sandy/earthy aspect to the flavours, despite the richness of the fruit. Medium length finish, even palate but fairly low-key (a hallmark of the balance). This should sing in another decade or so; all the elements are here.
