      Keyneton Euphonium is a beautiful composition of shiraz from up to 50-year-old vines growing in the Eden and Barossa Valleys, blended with cabernet sauvignon, merlot and cabernet franc from selected vineyards in both regions. The Barossa hills village of Keyneton, pioneered by pastoralist Joseph Keynes in 1842, was a musical and cultural focus for the early settlers, and home to the Henschke Family Brass Band and Henschke winery.

      Trusted by the professionals

      Deep ruby red from core to rim. Blackberry, tobacco leaf and pencil shaving aromatics. Medium to full with a seamlessly gliding nature as it rolls with black and blue fruits, graphite and wood shaving characters. An elegance to its flow that belies its persistent tannins and intensity of fruit. Lingers for an eternity at the finish. A very stylish and classic example of the great Australian blend, shiraz and cabernets.

      — Stuart Knox, The Real Review, 96 Points

      This Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc blend may be three years old, but it is as tight as a drum. This translates into potential-plus! The fine, firm tannin structure is definitely key to what will be considerable longevity. Resting easy in the background is a savoury undertow that revolves around red fruits, dried herbs (with sage a highlight note), spice, liquorice and a lingering herbal tomato leafiness. Well composed but hiding its considerable light at this moment. The best is yet to come.
