Details:
Penfolds St. Henri Shiraz is an iconic red wine crafted by Penfolds, a prestigious winery in Australia. Named after St. Henri’s Cellar, where the wine was first matured, this Shiraz represents a unique expression of the varietal. Sourced from premium vineyards across South Australia, Penfolds St. Henri Shiraz is characterized by its distinctive winemaking process, which involves aging in large, old oak vats rather than new oak barrels. This technique allows the fruit to shine, resulting in a wine celebrated for its purity, elegance, and longevity.
Color:
Deep garnet red with hints of crimson, showcasing its depth and maturity.
Tasting Notes:
Aroma: Intense aromas of ripe blackberries, plums, and cherries, complemented by hints of violet, cedar, and tobacco, showcasing the wine’s aromatic complexity and varietal character.
Palate: Medium to full-bodied, with flavors of dark fruits, such as blackcurrants and mulberries, intertwined with notes of dark chocolate, espresso, and spice, creating a rich and multi-layered palate with silky tannins and a long, lingering finish.
Finish: Elegant and persistent finish, with a seamless integration of fruit and oak flavors, leaving a lasting impression on the palate.
Serving Recommendations:
Penfolds St. Henri Shiraz is best served slightly below room temperature, around 16-18°C (61-64°F), to allow its flavors to fully develop. Decanting the wine for at least an hour before serving can further enhance its aromas and flavors. Pair it with flavorful dishes such as roast duck, lamb tagine, or wild mushroom risotto to complement its complexity and depth. This wine is suitable for special occasions, fine dining experiences, or as a cherished addition to any wine collection.
