“Henley is named in honour of my grandfather, who passed away at the ripe old age of 102 and is the best of the best of our McLaren Vale Shiraz" - Geoff Merrill

Aroma

The striking aroma greets you on your way to the glass. A wonderfully attractive smoked, savoury meat sits forward with spice, licorice, leather and stewed plum adding to the depth and complexity.

Palate

Wow! is one way to describe this most elegant palate. Fine velvety tannins flow seamlessly from beginning to end with crests of juicy developed fruit flavours adding to its rich landscape. A wine to savour with subtly flavoured foods.

Food Pairing

Enjoy with Slow Cooked Lamb Shanks, Aged Steak, Porcini or Truffle Risotto and Beef Carpaccio.

Vintage Information

The 2009 vintage was marked by a 13-day heatwave in late January and early February, prompting an early harvest start but a late finish. Cool, dry ripening conditions in most areas encouraged excellent flavour and colour. Winemakers and growers anticipate award-winning wines, reflecting McLaren Vale’s renowned quality and balance.

Wine Making

Matured for 38 months in new French oak hogsheads and puncheons.

Buying At Auction?

Your Questions, Answered

What do you need from me to get started?

We will need you to confirm that you are over 18 (for obvious reasons!) and to open an account by registering on the site. This will include provision of credit card details for any eventual purchases. You will also need to sign that you have read the terms and conditions.

How many wines are in each Lot?

You will see the quantity (number of bottles) stated above the price. Please note that the bid-price is per bottle so you will need to multiply the price by the number of bottles in the lot to calculate the total price of the lot.

Can I cancel my bid if I change my mind?

All bids are final - please think before you confirm your bid.

How much is the Buyers' Commission?

We have an extremely competitive buyers' commission of 16.5% (GST inclusive). This will be added to the final winning price of your Lot at the end of the auction.

What are your freight charges?

Please see our Delivery Policy for full details relating to freight.

Is there a Guarantee on my wine?

Under Australian law, consumer guarantees do not apply to goods purchased at auction - all such purchases are at the risk of the Buyer. We will always provide as much detail as we can as to the visual condition and provenance of each Lot, however this is done so as a guide rather than as a guarantee.
