2019 Penfolds RWT Bin 798 Shiraz 750ml

The initials RWT stand for ‘Red Winemaking Trial’, the name given to the project internally by Penfolds when developmental work began in 1995. No longer a 'trial', RWT Shiraz was launched in 2000. Its style is opulent and fleshy, made from fruit primarily selected for its aromatic qualities and plush texture. The result is a wine that helps to redefine Barossa shiraz at the highest quality level. Peak drinking: 2022 - 2040 Critic tasting note: "This wine offers layers of appealing aromas straight off the bat, from black cherry and currant to cedar, mocha, graphite, herbs and black olive. Concentrated yet impeccably balanced, the palate is smudged by savory tannins while spice and dark berry flavors weave seamlessly together. This delivers power and polish. Drink now–2040.
