Penfold RWT Shiraz 2007

Description

Colour: Dark red

Nose: Opulent glaceed fruits - saturated blueberry and satsuma plum elude from a freshly mixed summer berry compote. Stylish cedary oak marries with mixed spices and an element of (Gorgonzola) blue-vein cheese.

Aromatically decries Barossa, and Shiraz - but not separately, as per these words!

Palate: Firm, lively & vibrant. Cola and a flavour sensation not dissimilar to a generous longitudinal slice of Blackforest cake, replete with fruits. Tight, finely-grained harmonious oak and lacy, mouth-coating tannins induce a multi- dimensional 3D palate, tempered by crisp acidity. Awash with flavour, depth & extract.
