“The 40th anniversary of the first vintage of this wine, named after Stephen Henschke’s father, fourth-generation winemaker Cyril, who first planted this Cabernet Sauvignon vineyard in 1969. And in warmer years, like 2018, the ‘solar panel’ slopes of this cooler site shows what fully ripened Eden Valley Cabernet can offer. Rich purple and inky blue fruits soar from the glass: cassis, mulberry, violets and an almost pine forest-like ozone freshness that brings lift and clarity to the sumptuous palate. Beautiful length, elegance and purity, with smooth graphite-like tannins and vibrant acidity. With no 2017 produced, this is worth the wait; a fitting toast to Cyril.”
Vinous Media: 95 Points
“A standout vintage for the 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Cyril Henschke, marked by its combination of power and restraint. It initially delivers composed blackcurrant and graphite aromas that are tight and arresting. A firm and compact palate follows - brooding gravelly, black olive, meat stock, and blackcurrant flavors with exceptional tannin balance and outstanding length. Built for the cellar and to enjoy over the next two decades.”
