Score 87/100 · Lisa Perrotti-Brown MW, Wine Advocate, Apr 2013

Medium brick-brown in color, the 1983 Hill of Grace gives aromas that are a bit horsey / barnyard with a pleasant muskiness over an appealing core of dried fruits and preserved meat. Medium-bodied and a bit bony / hard in the mouth, it has firm acid and a medium level of chewy tannins through the long finish. It is mature. Importer: Negociants USA, Napa, CA; tel. (707) 259-0993

Bushfire vintage. The Henschkes couldn't see their way to the tennis court. Rather dull dark red. Quite high VA. Sweet start but some decay. This tastes as though some bottles could be stunning, but not, alas, this one. A bit cheesy. Drying finish. (JR)
