Henschke Henry’s Seven | 2009 Shiraz Grenache Viognier Mourvèdre, Barossa | 9

There’s nothing better than sitting down and relaxing with a nice glass of a good mellow red. There’s something about the way in which the wine waltzes down your throat, sending a wave of warmth through your body. Although, there’s not much worse than swallowing a mouthful of red-coloured kerosene and having to pour the rest down the sink.

I’ve found that $100 bottles of wine can sometimes taste of absolute crap. Similarly, I’ve found many $10 wines that I really like. The great thing about Australian shirazes, cabernets or blends involving either is that when you pay around $20-$30, you always get a wine that you enjoy. The Henry’s Seven is a magnificent blend of quality and price that for $25, in my opinion, isn’t matched.
