2012 Henschke Marble Angel Cabernet Sauvignon 750ml

The 2012 Henschke Marble Angel Cabernet Sauvignon is a refined and elegant expression of Eden Valley Cabernet, showcasing purity, balance, and the hallmark finesse of one of Australia’s most revered family estates. Produced by Henschke, Marble Angel represents a contemporary, cool-climate style of Cabernet Sauvignon, emphasising detail, freshness, and vineyard expression.

Fruit is sourced from high-altitude vineyards in Eden Valley, where cooler temperatures and ancient soils contribute to naturally lower yields, vibrant acidity, and finely structured tannins. The excellent 2012 vintage delivered fruit of outstanding balance and aromatic clarity, providing the foundation for a wine of elegance and longevity.

In the winery, grapes were hand-harvested and gently fermented to preserve varietal purity and finesse. Extraction was carefully managed to build structure without heaviness, and the wine was matured in French oak barrels, including a proportion of new oak, to enhance complexity and texture while maintaining balance.

The wine reveals lifted aromas of blackcurrant, cassis, and dark cherry, interwoven with notes of cedar, tobacco leaf, dried herbs, and subtle spice. The palate is medium-bodied and finely detailed, with bright acidity, silky tannins, and a long, composed finish that reflects its cool-climate origin and refined style.

Now entering a rewarding drinking window, the 2012 Marble Angel Cabernet Sauvignon offers both immediate enjoyment and further ageing potential over the coming decade, developing additional savoury complexity and tertiary nuance.

A poised and elegant Eden Valley Cabernet Sauvignon for collectors seeking finesse, balance, and proven pedigree.
