Geoff Merrill Henley Shiraz Magnum 2008 is a striking expression from McLaren Vale, named after Geoff’s grandfather. This powerful wine opens with captivating aromas of coffee, leather, and chocolate, which then evolve into black olive tapenade and spiced savoury meats. The bouquet also reveals layers of Asian spice, soy, roasted nuts, and hints of cigar box, creating a complex and intriguing nose.

On the palate, the 2008 Henley Shiraz Magnum is balanced by a tight line of acidity that lifts the wine, while dense tannins provide structure and longevity. Flavours echo the aromas with blackberry, mixed berry compote, cedar, and toasted spice characters, delivering a rich, full-bodied experience that is both refined and muscular. Ideal for pairing with slow-cooked lamb, grilled steaks, and hearty dishes, this magnum size ensures extended maturation and impressive evolution in the bottle.
