Product details
Penfolds Koonunga Hill Shiraz Cabernet is very much a reflection of the Penfolds winemaking style and philosophy. Sourced from premium vineyards across South Australia, the wine is known for its full-flavored style with excellent shiraz and cabernet fruit, firm yet well-rounded structure and balanced oak. Made as a traditional 'Australian blend', the shiraz component provides fleshy fruit flavor while cabernet provides a frame of fine grained tannins.
Deep crimson with red brick hues. A lovely amalgam of varietal notes, Shiraz offering plenty of dark fruit, while Cabernet Sauvignon provides lovely cool lifted aromas. A gentle swirl reveals preserved plums, fresh mulberry with pouring cream, cherry compote, milk chocolate, baking spices, fresh bay leaf, subtle white pepper and licorice. The palate is quite succulent, with lovely refreshing acidity and subtle tannins holding the fruit together beautifully. Ripe red fruits offer richness on the mid-palate, with flavors of dark cherry, pomegranate, and cranberry. Savory, charcuterie meats add a lovely savoury, umami edge. Softly textured, medium bodied and very approachable.
