Penfolds RWT Bin 798 Barossa Valley Shiraz 2019
- 750 ml bottle
Product details
Very deep red/purple colour. Profound aromas of roasted nuts, smoked meats, graphite earthiness, iron-stoniness, tar, a hint of blackberry jam. The palate is very full-bodied and broad, a wide-bodied wine with masses of tannins that coat the entire palate. An exotic, decadent wine with hints of surmaturité, opulent to its very long finish. There's more grip, grunt and rusticity than the Magill, but it's just as good in its way. It's a great foil and contrast for the Magill. (18 months in French oak hogsheads, 57% new, 43% one year old). Drink date: 2023-2046. Score - 98. (Huon Hooke, therealreview.com, June 23, 2021)
