Only 230 dozen of this rare McLaren Vale Shiraz were produced from the 2008 vintage. After 35 months of maturation in French oak, the finest barrels were selected based on the complexity, balance, structure and palate intensity.

Powerful aromas and flavours characteristic of the vineyards and region typify the Henley blend, with firmly structured silky tannins and impeccable acid balance completing this exceptionally fine wine.

This was bottled in 2011 and will benefit from further cellar maturation, decant prior to serving.

Geoff Merrill was born in 1953 and was raised on a sheep station in the far north of South Australia until he was 11 years old. The Merrill family then moved to the Barossa Valley, just north of Adelaide, where Geoff`s first links with the wine industry were formed. Following his `apprenticeship` at Chateau Reynella, in 1985 he purchased the historic Mount Hurtle winery. Reknowned for his handle-bar moustache and friendship with many of crickets elite, his talents were recently rewarded when he received the legendary Jimmy Watson Trophy, probably Australia`s most prestigious wine award.
