2012 RWT Shiraz, Penfolds, Barossa Valley

2012 RWT Shiraz, Penfolds, Barossa Valley

“The bouquet abounds with black fruits, with sub-notes of dark chocolate, licorice and some charcuterie. The palate is drop-dead gorgeous, a curious description given its strongly savoury flavour range, but it achieves the unlikely. As with all these wines, the tannin structure is exceptional, the length prodigious.”
