Penfolds St. Henri Shiraz 2000
South Australia, AustraliaSt. Henri is an elegant, multi-district shiraz based on Barossa fruit and no new wood. Look for lots of coriander, leather and blackberry jam on the nose mixed with leather and smoky tobacco. The entry is round and smooth with somewhat grainy tannins on the finish. Leather, blueberry, blackberry and smoky tobacco flavours mix with some peppery, mint notes. Nice length and concentration but a touch acidic in the finish.Tasted: 05 May 2004Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $46.99 | 750ml | Specialty |
