The signature spice and sage leaf are here, and it’s bursting with an array of dark-brown spice aromas and pepper. The fruits run from raspberry tinges through to deep blackberry, cassis, blueberry and blue plums. Best from 2022.

Medium garnet in color, the 2010 Shiraz Hill of Grace reveals a slightly reticent yet beguiling nose of kirsch, dried mulberries and plum preserves with nuances of star anise, potpourri, cloves, dusty earth and menthol. Medium to full-bodied with youthfully taut, mouth-filling perfumed berry preserves and exotic spice flavors, the fruit is well framed by rounded, polished tannins and seamless freshness, finishing with incredible length. It could still benefit from 2-4 years in bottle before entering its drinking window but is already stunning. - Lisa Perrotti-Brown

This embryonic 2010 Shiraz Hill of Grace is classically proportioned and built for the long haul. It shows wonderful intensity, precision and fruit focus as blackberry, graphite, black olive and coal fire aromas slowly emerge in the glass - each perfectly proportioned. It’s then firm and compact, still tightly wound with a deep reserve of muscular tannins that drive an exceptionally long, drying and sustained finish. This is a benchmark vintage. -- Angus Hughson

Is this the Yin to Grange's Yang? The wines are completely different, yet almost always destined to be discussed together. The 2010 HoG is aromatic and bright, with raspberry and cranberry fruit notes, hints of mint and a pinch of peppery spice. It's full-bodied, but with elegant, supple tannins that ease gently into a long, crisp finish. Drink now–2030.

Elegant, expressive and wonderfully complex. Bergamot, sandalwood and black walnut liqueur notes add an aromatic complexity to the sleek, polished blackberry flavors. Shows a mix of power and finesse, with an epic finish. Drink now through 2032. From Australia. — M .W.
