Despite reduced yields of up to 30% - 40%, the 1995 vintage will be of high quality for both red and white wines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eProducer Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBright crimson in colour, sweet perfumed spicy plums and licorice with blackcurrant and chocolate Cabernet flavours and soft silky briary sappy hints of Merlot complexed by nuances of coconut, vanilla and balsam oak. A very pure fruits orientated wine showing a rich intense palate finishing with long firm tannins and balanced acidity. A more austere wine than the 1994 vintage reflecting the drought and low yeilds of 1995, and one which will reward time in the cellar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVintage: 1995\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrape Variety: 71% Shiraz, 21% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Merlot, 1% Malbec\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRegion: Eden Valley and Barossa Valley\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaturation: New and seasoned American and French oak hogsheads for 15 months\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVineyard \/ Geo info: Low yielding, ungrafted dry grown varieties\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Langtons","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52269017661742,"sku":"7270964523","price":130.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0686\/6596\/6894\/files\/1091995HenschkeKeynetonEstateShirazCabernetMalbec_EdenValleyJustBelowBaseofNeck..png?v=1783043550","url":"https:\/\/www.jcfinewines.au\/products\/1995-henschke-keyneton-estate-shiraz-cabernet-merlot-750ml","provider":"JC FINE WINES","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
