Critical Acclaim

James Suckling

This is a much anticipated vintage for St. Henri, and it does not disappoint. The complexity of fruit here is stunning, together with a very complex and playfully fragrant, spicy edge with graphite, roasted coffee and woody spices, framing a core of very fresh blackberries, red and dark cherries and blueberries. So fresh and brimming with fruit aromas. The palate has a stunning array of deeply fleshy fruit flavors with a superb sense of length and powerful, ripe tannin, underpinning vibrant, fleshy fruit that is beautifully assembled in a refined, elegant and impressively pure mode. So long and pure. Silky and elegant. A real masterpiece, taking its place among the finest vintages like 2010, 1990 and 1971. 95% shiraz and 5% cabernet sauvignon. Drink over the next three decades.

Jeb Dunnuck

The St. Henri cuvée is always brought up all in neutral oak casks, and the 2016 is a blend of 95% Shiraz and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon, with just 690 cases produced. This was a great vintage for South Australia, and this blockbuster sports a deep purple color as well as a dense, powerful, meaty bouquet of smoked black fruits, chocolate, bouquet garni, bay leaf, mint, and plenty of earthy minerality. Reminding me of an Hermitage from the likes of Delas Frères, it’s full-bodied and incredibly concentrated, with a stacked mid-palate and loads of ripe tannins. Backward and mostly potential at this point, it’s nevertheless a thrilling Shiraz readers should give 4-5 years of bottle age and it will knock your socks off over the coming two decades.

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

The 2016 St Henri Shiraz is one of the finest St Henris I've ever tasted, rivaling the likes of the 1986 or 1976. It's concentrated and rich, the essence of South Australia Shiraz (although it's been lightened by the addition of 5% Cabernet Sauvignon), unleavened by any new oak. Dark and tarry, it delivers notes of espresso and black olive, plummy fruit and roasted meat. Full-bodied and dense on the palate, it ends long, dark and savory.

Wine Spectator

Shows plenty of oomph and verve to the core of blackberry and blueberry flavors, with pops of minerally loam, licorice, black pepper and oolong tea. The tannins are fine-grained and dense, but this remains fresh overall, delivering vibrant juiciness that lends focus and energy to the long, expressive finish. Drink now through 2035.

Discover Shiraz Wines

Shiraz, also known as Syrah, is a prominent, dark colored red wine. Despite the fact that Shiraz's spiritual home is France, it has been planted successfully all over the world. It takes on diverse forms based on the temperature, soil, and regional style, but some traits stay consistent.

Shiraz h is known for being strong and full-bodied, with aromas of smokiness, black fruit, and pepper spice. It can be round and fruity or thick and tannic in style. Syrah is also known as Shiraz in warmer parts of the New World, such as Australia. Syrah/Shiraz, by any name, has a style for everyone.

Shiraz, whatever you call it, is one of the deepest, darkest red wines available. This wine is darker than Cabernet Sauvignon, and it's so dark that you'd have a hard time seeing through it if you held a glass up to the light. Shiraz is a full-bodied wine with a lot of mouth-drying tannins, so it feels heavy in your mouth; it has flavors like berries, pepper, tobacco, and even smoked meat. While Shiraz pairs well with meat, it also goes well with a variety of other foods, so try it with whatever you like. Shiraz boasts one of the highest levels of health-beneficial antioxidants due to the high level of tannins contained in the wine.
