Very deep purple-black in color and showing an attractive nose of warm blackcurrants, blueberries and licorice with a complex undercurrent of mocha, cedar, menthol and grilled meat, the full-bodied 2010 St Henri Shiraz is relatively rich in the mouth, offering tons of fruit structured by firm, fine tannins and refreshing acid. It finishes with great persistence. Drink it 2015 to 2030+ Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

From the renowned 2010 vintage, starting to drink beautifully now. Just the beginning of its drinking window I suspect. Amazing nose of sublime red fruit and forest floor, some cassis, great taste and a lovely long finish. In a good place but should improve.

Easy to see or taste why this wine is held in such high regard, particularly the 2010 vintage. A lovely color, smooth flavour and a long finish. Pity I don’t have a few more....

Big nose of spice, tar and blackcurrant. Med to full bodied classic shiraz - black fruit, spice, quite and pepper. Tannins quite aggressive. Still very young and quite closed but v age worthy classic shiraz. 2-3 pt uplift with age. Quite Rhone-like.

Great kick in the pants! Strong acidity clears the palate without being overly sweet.
