Henschke Wines – A Legacy of Australian Winemaking

Henschke is one of Australia’s most iconic and historic wineries, with a winemaking heritage spanning over 150 years. Located in Eden Valley, South Australia, the winery is world-renowned for producing exceptional single-vineyard Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Riesling. From the legendary Hill of Grace to the elegant Tappa Pass Shiraz, Henschke wines are synonymous with quality, craftsmanship, and a deep respect for terroir.

The History of Henschke

The Henschke story began in the mid-19th century when Johann Christian Henschke, a Prussian immigrant, planted his first vines in Eden Valley. Over generations, the Henschke family has refined their winemaking expertise, creating some of the most highly regarded wines in the world. Cyril Henschke, the fourth-generation winemaker, introduced the now-famous Hill of Grace Shiraz in the 1950s, cementing the winery’s global reputation.

Today, the winery is led by Stephen and Prue Henschke, who continue the family’s tradition of sustainable viticulture, organic farming, and meticulous winemaking. Their commitment to biodiversity and minimal intervention has positioned Henschke as a leader in premium Australian wine.

Why Henschke Wines Are Special
