A generous mid-palate shows off fine long fruit flavours from the slow-ripening 2022 vintage, with ruddy Shiraz ripeness in step with the more tannic bite of Cabernet Sauvignon’s blackberry and mulberry adding a moreish savoury note. With 36% new American oak hogsheads used for 12 months’ maturation, there’s just enough oak-influenced spice to provide adequate seasoning to the deep, pure flavours.\u003c\/em\u003e\"- Decanter. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"\u003cem\u003e#12 of Top 100, 2024. Generous and impressive for its seamlessness, this is like a slice of Black Forest cake, offering chocolate and cherry flavors that are practically creamy and plush. Dutched cocoa powder, dried herb and cigar box nuances amplify this red on the long finish, with velvety tannins alongside hints of fresh loam and clove. Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz.

Hints of bitter lemon, graphite and tar at the end. Drink or hold.

It is powerfully tannic, abundantly fruitful and long through the finish. What more can be said of a wine like this other than that it is a firm style, made consistently year in and year out. Aniseed, nutmeg, cinnamon and malt populate the register of spices from the charry oak. This is a big, big wine. It is composed of 51% Cabernet Sauvignon and the balance Shiraz, sourced from a blend of McLaren Vale, Coonawarra, Barossa Valley, Padthaway and Wrattonbully.\u003c\/em\u003e\"-\u003cspan\u003e Robert Parker's Wine Advocate. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVarietal: Syrah.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Aspect","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52429713539253,"sku":null,"price":74.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0521\/7101\/4325\/files\/3A6F298A-99F1-4BA1-8281-ABFBB791DC19.jpg?v=1775921036","url":"https:\/\/www.spirowines.com\/products\/penfolds-shiraz-bin-389-2022","provider":"Spiro Wines","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
