ヘンチキ
1862年に設立。4代目のシリルはブレンドワインやフォーティファイドワインが流行していた時代に、あえて様々な品種の単一畑を開拓しました。現在、5代目当主でありワインメーカーのスティーブンと妻でありブドウ栽培家のプルーの二人を主導に、ブランド維持と発展に従事しており、彼らの素晴らしい能力はヘンチキファンを魅了して止みません。最高級の単一畑にこだわった自慢のポートフォリオを揃え、6代目と共にオーガニックやバイオダイナミックの理論に基づき、先祖が残した畑をより豊かな状態で後世に引き継ぐべく情熱を注いでいます。
The Henschke family has been making wine since Johann Christian Henschke planted a small vineyard on his diverse farming property at Keyneton in 1862. He was one of many Silesians who had fled their homeland in search of religious freedom, and he arrived from Kutschlau in 1841.
The fourth-generation Cyril Henschke pioneered varietal and single-vineyard wines. His greatest legacy was the creation of Hill of Grace and Mount Edelstone in the 1950s, shiraz wines from Eden Valley that have captured the red wine world’s imagination.
Today, it is fifth-generation Stephen Henschke and his wife Prue at the helm, passionately upholding the family name and reputation. Henschke maintains their exceptional wines from outstanding vineyards by sourcing additional fruit from growers of excellence, from the Eden Valley, Barossa Valley and the Adelaide Hills regions.
The sixth-generation, Johann, Justine, and Andreas, are all actively involved in helping Stephen and Prue explore new and exciting developments. Among these are organic and biodynamic principles that will enrich the land of their forebears and strengthen a future in winemaking for the generations to come.
