Description

This Action is for a 3 bottle case of 2003 Hill of Grace. Each bottle is packed in its own indiviual wooden case.

"The 2003 Hill of Grace was made, but it was a super tiny vintage. It was sent to wine writers and some countries around the world (some countries only got 3 bottles)... Australian Agents would have possibly received 1 bottle each. However, it is not sold through the Cellar Door. So that is why this wine has been reviewed, but is unable to be purchased. Probably the only way to obtain a 2003 Hill of Grace is through rare wine auctions or charity events."
Statement by - CA Henschke & Co.

"Rich, polished and absolutely seamless, this is harmonious and expressive, with tremendous depth. Offers licorice-scented blackberry, black cherry, pomegranate and dusky spices in such a cohesive package that it's hard to pick them out. Hints of mineral and spice add nuance to the finish. Will only get better with cellaring. Best from 2010 through 2028."
99 points, Harvey Steinman, Wine Spectator

"Henschke’s flagship is the famous Hill of Grace Shiraz. The 2003 Hill of Grace has sensational aromatics, unique and very sexy, with elements of toasty oak, smoke, violets, pepper, espresso, blueberry, and blackberry liqueur. On the palate, this Shiraz is surprisingly subtle and elegant with layered complex flavors, superb concentration, and well-concealed tannins. It will evolve for a decade and drink well through 2035. It remains one of Australia’s benchmarks for Shiraz."
