Penfolds Koonunga Hill Shiraz Cabernet
Customer Reviews
Recommend it!
Great with barbequed meat such as sausages and steak. Drinks well with or without food. Would definitely recommend it.

Tasting Notes
Bright crimson in colour. The nose is redolent of fresh pudding mixture and mixed red berries (raspberry and strawberry). There's an immediate fragrance that jumps out the glass, with subtle glace fruit and sorbet edges and just the right inflection of cedary, seasoned oak. The palate reflects the nose, with deeper plum and red-fruits, although there is further depth, akin to rhubarb compote. Texturally there is a rolling persistence and a claret-like grip that is eminently Penfolds. The chocolate like finish is Koonunga Hill through and through, with fine grained tannins.
More info
Since its first vintage in 1976, Koonunga Hill's reputation has been built upon its affordable price and its approachability in its youth, with the potential to develop if carefully cellared. Penfolds Koonunga Hill Shiraz Cabernet is very much a reflection of the Penfolds winemaking style and philosophy. Sourced from premium vineyards across South Australia, the wine is known for its full-flavoured style with excellent Shiraz and cabernet fruit, firm yet well-rounded structure and balanced oak.
