Description
Enjoy layers of dark fruit and savoury spice built on a backbone of the dusty tannins for which Coonawarra is known. This shiraz expresses the bright flavours and structure of cooler-climate, French oak-matured shiraz, crafted in classic Penfolds style. Pair with braised beef or slow-roasted lamb.

(2021) COLOUR Plum purple NOSE Blue fruits, violets and cracked black pepper help us to orientate. Fresh mulberries, wild white strawberries and boysenberries compliment a darker panforte nuance. Just baked panettone with vanilla cream adds a sweet allure. Savoury aromas manifest as roast beef with horseradish, paprika, Moroccan spices with a hint of struck match and pencil shavings. PALATE The palate is medium-weight, relative to the likes of the warm climate Bin 28 shiraz. The blue fruits noted on the nose are quite apparent on the flavour profile. However, the wine is orientated towards the savoury end of the spectrum. It is verging on Rhône like, with cured meats, pepper, olives and paprika flavours vying for attention. On further inspection, almond kernels and cardamom add to the allure. The tannins are silken, finely woven around the fruit. The acid line is as neat as a pin. Everything is in the right place, a lovely wine now with decades of potential for those who can wait. PEAK DRINKING Now - 2038Product Details
