O Produtor, tasting note published in September 21st 2021
Penfolds Koonunga Hill Shiraz-Cabernet is a concentrated red wine with aromas of red fruits, hints of aromatic plants and hints of liquorice. On the palate it is "fleshy", deep and elegant. A wine with fine, elegant tannins, a good fine grain texture and a long, persistent finish.
Despite great success, Penfolds never rests on its laurels. In 2012 Penfolds released its most innovative project to date – 12 handcrafted ampoules of the rare 2004 Kalimna Block Cabernet Sauvignon.
Two years later, Penfolds celebrated the 170th anniversary – having just picked up a perfect score of 100 for the 2008 Grange in two of the world’s most influential wine magazines. Today, Penfolds continues to hold dear the philosophies and legends – ‘1844 to evermore!’.
