2013 Keyneton Euphonium | MG

Inky ruby. Spice- and smoke-tinged black currant and cherry aromas are complicated by suggestions of pipe tobacco, licorice and incense. Energetic and focused on the palate, offering sappy, oak-spiced red and blue fruit and floral pastille flavors that deepen and spread out in the midpalate. Concentrated yet graceful, showing impressive energy and power on a long, gently tannic finish that leaves bitter cherry and licorice notes behind.

Henschke's 2013 Keyneton Euphonium is deep garnet-purple in color and exudes lovely, expressive blackberries and cherries on the nose, with menthol, pepper, anise and cloves—plus a waft of fragrant earth. A full, rich and concentrated blend, with firm and grainy tannins, this wine is well balanced and possesses great structure.
