**Tasting Notes:**
The Penfolds St Henri Shiraz 2016 presents a deep ruby color with a vibrant purple hue. On the nose, expect an enticing bouquet of dark berries, plum, and hints of black cherry, complemented by subtle notes of spice, chocolate, and a touch of earthiness. The palate is full-bodied and well-structured, showcasing ripe tannins and balanced acidity. Flavors of blackberry, licorice, and a hint of pepper unfold, leading to a long, lingering finish with nuances of oak and savory elements. This wine is approachable now but has the potential for further aging, enhancing its complexity over time. Enjoy it with grilled meats, rich stews, or aged cheeses.
