Penfolds St Henri Shiraz Red Wine South Australia 2016 (750mL). Penfolds St Henri Shiraz Red Wine South Australia 2016 (750mL) Product Information Penfolds St Henri is a time-honoured and alternative expression of Shiraz, and an intriguing counterpoint to
Grange. It is unusual among high quality Australian red wines as it does not rely on any new oak. It was
created in the early 1950s (first commercial vintage 1957) and gained a new lease of life in the 1990s as
its quality and distinctive style became better understood. Proudly, a wine style that hasn’t succumbed
to the dictates of fashion or commerce. St Henri is rich and plush when young, gaining soft, earthy,
mocha-like characters as it ages. It is matured in old, 1460 litre vats that allow the wine to develop,
imparting minimal, if any oak character. Although a small proportion of Cabernet is sometimes used
to improve structure, the focal point for St Henri remains Shiraz. In the lead up to the 2016 vintage, fruit from vineyard sites fitting the St Henri style were identified and batched according to those with the desired aromatics, concentration and structure. Each parcel was vinified separately before being matured in very old large wooden vats for 12 months. For optimum enjoyment, this wine should be carefully decanted prior to being served. Penfolds St Henri is loved by generations of wine collectors, providing an time-honoured
expression of Shiraz. A rich and plush wine when young, gaining soft, arthy, mocha-like
characters as it ages.
