Penfolds St. Henri Shiraz 1994
South Australia, AustraliaA historic Penfolds wine that was created around the same time Max Schubert was designing Grange. Big, old vats remove the new wood element from St. Henri leaving the fruit to tell its story. Cherries and plum mix with earth and pepper and a touch of gaminess in the background. Highly concentrated flavours of blackberry, earth and spice permeate the wine. Excellent structure and length. Drink now or age, the choice is yours.Tasted: 01 March 1997Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $38.00 | 750ml |
