The 2020 McHenry Hohnen Rolling Stone is a distinctive Margaret River red blend that reflects the winery's thoughtful approach to vineyard expression and balanced winemaking. The bouquet is layered with aromas of dark plum, blackberry and black cherry, complemented by notes of dried herbs, cedar, subtle spice and a touch of earthy complexity that has developed with bottle age.
On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied with concentrated dark fruit, fine-grained tannins and bright natural acidity that provide structure and freshness. Gentle oak integration adds hints of cocoa and savoury spice, while the finish is long, balanced and persistent with lingering notes of black fruits and subtle mineral detail. Now showing excellent harmony, the wine will continue to reward careful cellaring over the next 5–8 years.
Ben's Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent choice for customers seeking a mature Margaret River red with depth, balance and savoury complexity. It pairs beautifully with slow-roasted lamb, grilled beef, braised short ribs or hearty mushroom dishes. Decant for around an hour before serving to allow the wine to fully express its layered aromas and texture.
