SKU: PENRWTSHZ23CRK
Originally conceived as the 'Red Winemaking Trial' in the 1990s, RWT shiraz was officially launched with its 1997 vintage in May 2000. It presents an opulent, contemporary style that serves as a modern contrast to the more traditional and muscular Grange. Made from Barossa Valley shiraz grapes, the wine is selected for its aromatic qualities, fine tannins, and plush texture. Unlike Grange, RWT is matured exclusively in French oak, resulting in a delightfully approachable wine that can also be cellared for years.

”All plush fruit and textural nuance. This is a great release for the RWT Bin 798, Penfolds' finely tuned, contemporary rendition of Barossa Valley shiraz. Magenta-splashed crimson with fruit tones of satsuma plum, black cherry, blueberry and boysenberry along with hints of baking spices, chocolate cake, olive tapenade, dark chocolate, sandalwood, graphite, crushed rock, wood spice and cedar. The earthy and creamy flavours are beautifully balanced on the palate. The flow of fruit is long and true, with fine, powdery tannins poised perfectly as the wine trails off. This is a gorgeous drink now but will cellar beautifully over the next several decades.”
– Dave Brookes, Halliday Wine Companion
