About The Wine

Henschke has been making wine in the Barossa's Eden Valley since 1868, one of Australia's oldest family-owned wineries. Six generations and over 150 years later, the family still farms some of the country's most revered parcels — including the Hill of Grace vineyard, planted in the 1860s and still producing one of Australia's greatest Shiraz bottlings.

Johann's Garden Grenache is drawn from the Barossa Valley floor, where old-vine Grenache thrives in the region's warm, dry climate. The Barossa is to Grenache what the Rhone is to Chateauneuf — warm days, ancient soils, fruit that concentrates without losing energy. Henschke farms it with the same rigor they bring to their icon wines, treating Grenache not as a blending grape but as a stand-alone expression of place.

In the glass, this is Grenache done right: red-fruit purity, spice, and a savory edge that keeps it from feeling one-dimensional. It's the kind of wine that makes you wonder why more producers don't take the variety this seriously. Pour it now with lamb or cellar it a few years — the structure will reward patience.

CRITIC REVIEWS

What the Critics Said

"Lifted and perfumed aromas of boysenberries, rose petals, hibiscus and raspberry coulis. The palate is energetic, with nicely framed tannins, bright acidity and a medium-bodied palate. Flavors of red currants, pomegranates and cassis are complemented by a bright and crunchy finish. A blend of 79% grenache and 21% mataro made from 70-year-old vines. Drink now. Screw cap." ~94 James Suckling
"Harvested 24 March-23 April. The Grenache and Mataro grapes, both from dry-grown bush vines with some 70 years or so under their belt, are vinified separately and aged in seasoned French oak hogsheads for 10 months prior to blending and bottling. Hedonistic and ripe, with a lush, rounded palate of raspberry and plum fruit, layered with notes of lavender, white pepper and nutmeg. There’s a gently raspy quality to the ripe tannins, and just enough acidity to provide balance. The finish is long, with a savoury undertow that balances all that sweetly ripe fruit." ~93 Decanter
"The 2022 Johann's Garden comprises 79% Grenache and 21% Mataro. The wine is perfumed and detailed, with licorice/fennel, hung deli meat, cherry, raspberry, milk chocolate and blood plum. The palate follows in the same vein and is shaped by fine tannins. 14.5% alcohol, sealed under screw cap." ~92 Wine Advocate

THE PRODUCER

Henschke

The story of Henschke winery starts with the journey of Johann Christian Henschke, when he dramatically escaped from Germany to Australia back in 1803. In 1847, Johann established in Barossa Valley, where he purchased some land in Krondorf village and built the house that would become the winery (which stands to this day.) It was in 1862, that he planted the first vineyard and 6 years later, he released the first vintage of Shiraz and Riesling.
