Ruby red core color with a crimson rim. The nose gives off inviting aromas of blackberry compote, dark chocolate and mocha. Mince tart complexity and sweet short crust pastry add spice/brioche notes to the aromatic spectrum. The Shiraz vibrancy is overlaid with supportive oak and roasted meats. Penfolds character and 'House Style' is immediately evident; characterized by mouth-filling dark fruits and fine tannins. Currants, chocolate custard and vanilla sponge adorn the palate, combining with notes of quince, praline and ground coffee.
A multi regional blend of Shiraz from across South Australia’s premium wine growing regions. Koonunga Hill Shiraz is a plumper style with plush red-berried fruits, generosity of flavour and supple ripe tannins. It has excellent structure and length, and while it is ready for drinking now, the Koonunga Hill Shiraz will gain further complexity over the next two to four years.
TASTE DESCRIPTION
Colour Deep red.
Nose No doubting the variety – plum and liquorice aromatics immediately take centre stage of this Shiraz performance.
Prominent fleshy, ripe fruits initially overwhelm a suspicion of spice and oak.
Upon sitting in glass, other artefacts reluctantly conceded.
Palate An impressive mouthfeel-fleshy, round & lush, yet remaining vibrant & balanced. An open-weave of assorted varietal shiraz fruit flavours and spices. Innocent, exposed.
Recognisably a modern style with accessibility & drinkability a key feature.
WHEN TO DRINK
Now - 2020. Drinking well now, but will improve with time.
