Any TNs on 2001 and/or 2002 Henschke Hill of Roses?

Post by Baby Chickpea »

With the current futures offered on the "baby" Hill of Grace – the 2002 Hill of Roses – I have yet to see any independent TNs anywhere on this wine and its predecessor, the 2001. Anyone assist please? Given the 30% price increase for the 2002 to $130pb, its not really an option at this stage, but am interested in what others think re: fruit from youthful Hill of Grace vines. Is anybody taking up their offer? Those that did last year, anyone crack one of the 2001s open yet? Thanks in advance.

Unable to help with the requested info, but I can't help thinking Stephen Henschke would like to submit your post's title as late evidence to the SA District court concerning his historic lawsuit... :wink:

cheers,

Graeme,

Can you elaborate on this for me? I was searching through the archives for Henschke Hill of Roses and came across this thread. However, I'm a little unsure (perhaps as a youngster?) of the 'historic lawsuit'? Are you referring to Cyril?

Cheers,
Max

Got allocated both 2001 and 2002 Hill of Roses, but yet to open any one of them. Will post note when I open one.
