Penfolds RWT - Bin 798 Shiraz Barossa Valley, Australia 1998

Bottle Size: 75cl

Region: Australia

Colour: Red

Style: Still

Critic Score: Bright medium ruby. Sexy, complex nose features dark berries, black cherry, roasted coffee, chicory and smoky, spicy oak. Lush and concentrated, with pliant but juicy flavors of cherry and berries; some tar and herbaceous notes emerged with extended aeration. Finishes long and bright, with firm, fine tannins and substantial oakiness. Tasted July 2001. 90 points. Stephen Tanzer, Vinous.com
