The tasting |
|
|
Dark red with carmine undertones. |
|
| | |
|
Ripe and intensely perfumed with aromas of predominantly Syrah, delicate smoky notes, eucalyptus and spicy cinnamon and black pepper. |
|
| | |
|
The palate is velvety, warm and powerful, with numerous silky tannins and a perfect balance thanks to controlled, integrated ageing. Magnificent long, elegant persistence. |

The estate and the wine |
|
|
Penfolds is an astounding success story! The estate owes its global renown to its iconic cuvée, Grange. This extraordinary wine indeed stands shoulder to shoulder with the greatest wines on the planet, earning unanimous acclaim from critics.
Simultaneously, Penfolds skillfully crafts more accessible cuvées with the same rigor and care. Syrah and chardonnay are cultivated on these Southern Australian terroirs, resulting in straightforward and flavorful wines that have garnered universal appeal. |

| | |
|
The perfect embodiment of Penfolds' style and craftsmanship, the 2018 red South Australia Koonunga Hill Shiraz Cabernet undoubtedly offers one of the best value-for-enjoyment ratios in the country! The wine presents a beautiful aromatic range, featuring notes of spices, red fruit coulis, particularly cherry, with a touch of bergamot and spices. The medium-bodied structure remains supple and very pleasing, in a spicy and exotic profile. A wonderful bottle that brings people together, ideal to pair with grilled meat, available today |
