Hill of Grace is one of the pinnacles of Australian wine. With a lineage and history of ageing that is rivalled only by Penfolds Grange, Hill of Grace is the most sought after single vineyard Shiraz in Australia. 

Critics thoughts - “The 2022 Hill of Grace Shiraz leads with dark fruit and an abundance of exotic spice to match. The tannins are profuse here, quite distinct from the Hill of Roses tasted alongside.  Star anise, cloves,cinnamon (cassia), fennel seeds and Sichuan pepper weave in and out of the blackberry, blueberry, crushed quartz/ferrous undertones.  There's a sweet rolling-tobacco character that is highly attractive and lingers through the finish. I love the 2022 vintage. It is fresh and detailed.  It may forever live in the shadow of the great 2021 vintage, but not for me—I believe firmly this is a sleeper vintage and will reveal its longevity given time.  The allure of it now is not in question, either.”  99 POINTS - ERIN LARKIN, THE WINE ADVOCATE

“This is a wine built to last! Delicate within the idiom of a South Australian Shiraz and beautifully balanced for future consumption. In this wine it’s not too difficult to discern the tannins but they are very ripe and very much in the background of the historic fruit. This is recognisable South Australian Shiraz but should be put away for quite a while!”  18++/20 – JANCIS ROBINSON MW, JANCISROBINSON.COM

“In 2022, Hill of Grace lives up to its name! The perfume is a joyous concerto of red fruit... the palate shows incredible restraint and composure before blackcurrant notes flood in, consuming every tastebud. This time, the tannins are far more active and combative, on account of the westerly-facing aspect of this vineyard. And while the structure is incredible, there is beguiling elegance throughout. The palate shows extraordinary waves of flavour, and yet despite the depth of flavour, coolness and freshness can be found in every molecule of fruit. Many will compare it to the 2021, but this is not apples-to-apples. The weather changes everything! Instead, one must keep these two vintages standing side by side, so one can appreciate two sides of one coin and the elemental grace and unpredictability of this ancient plot of vines.”  19.5+/20 – MATTHEW JUKES, MATTHEWJUKES.COM
