Penfolds Koonunga Hill Shiraz Cabernet 2000
South Australia, AustraliaThe 2000 is a 61/39 fruit salad of Barossa, Coonawarra, Langhorne Creek, Clare Valley, Seymour and Victoria fruit that opens with sweaty leather and cassis aromas, roasted pepper and hints of black cherry. Much rounder and softer on the palate with fine blackberry, spice and peppery earth flavours. Expect hints of licorice and leather in the finish. Already showing some maturity. This is fine value with big flavour all made in the same manner as Bin 389.Tasted: 01 March 2003Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $16.95 | 750ml | Specialty |
