CRITIC REVIEWS
Angus Hughson
The 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon Cyril Henschke is a savory expression, with black olive, clay and cedar aromas in a notable oak frame. The 2022 is sturdy, young and muscular with gravelly flavours, a touch of dried herbs and chewy tannins. This is a highly ageworthy vintage with brooding, understated power and a long, sustained finish. Cellar this well for best results.

Full bottle 1,280 g. The 42nd release of a wine named for fourth-generation winemaker Cyril Henschke, a passionate pioneer of single-vineyard, single-varietal wines. The Cyril Henschke Cabernet Sauvignon was first produced as a single-vineyard wine in 1978, originally from vines planted by Cyril in 1969. Since the early 1990s the fruit has come from Stephen and Prue Henschke s 1988 planting of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc in that same, north-facing vineyard. (Not produced in 2011 and 2017.) Subtly, vibrantly, shaded deep blackish ruby. There s a strong mint streak here. It s more angular with less in the middle than the panoply of single-vineyard 2022 Shirazes, though it s a lovely back story. More of a wake-up call than the night cap presented by those 2022 Shirazes. But with the same long finish and carefully managed tannins. You don t have to go looking for the acidity and tannin in this wine, which is the one for which I m inclined to follow the advice on the back label of all of them: Decanting is recommended before serving .
