Penfolds Koonunga Hill Shiraz Red Wine 750ml

2022 Vintage

Since its inception, Penfolds Koonunga Hill has always aimed to deliver quality, value and consistency. The original 1976 Koonunga Hill Claret is a legendary wine that is still drinking well today. A favourite at Penfolds Re-corking Clinics, collectors value its quality and longevity. Koonunga Hill Shiraz joined the range in 2002, a contemporary reflection of Penfolds multi-regional sourcing philosophy. Shiraz from the warmer districts of South Australia is carefully blended, with the Barossa Valley always well represented.

Tasting Notes:

Colour: Shiny crimson red.

Nose: Intense aromatic lift. Mixed berry compote drizzled over custard. Cinnamon lightly dusted. Butchers shop pork and fennel sausage. Perfumed aniseed, cardamon and clove.

Palate: Fresh raspberry and rhubarb - giving the wine a juicy, bright succulence on the palate. A creaminess reminiscent of French pastries - French oak influence. Cinnamon dusting follows building texture. A fleshy mid palate, structural, powdery tannins. Well integrated and balanced.
