Mattinson review of Henschke Marble Angel 2022.

Henschke Marble Angel Cabernet Sauvignon 2022
AU$80, 14.5% alcohol, screwcap, Barossa Valley.

Single vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon from the Barossa Valley.
Cabernet when it’s at its best brings power, structure and length but most importantly, it also brings flow. It makes the wine seem relaxed and enjoyable, even as it lays down the law. This Cabernet Sauvignon from Henschke mines that vein. It has a juicy, even-handed flow to it, it brings blackcurrant, peppercorn, tobacco and mint flavours to the table, and it makes its long finish seem effortless. In short, we’re in elite territory here.

95 points – Campbell Mattinson.
