St. Henri Shiraz is a great red wine from the most famous Australian estate: Penfolds.
Unlike all the great red wines in the range (Grange, 707, RWT, and 169), Saint Henri is not aged in oak barrels. It is matured in large, used foudres, allowing it to develop with little additional energy. A great, smooth and opulent wine in its youth.
The color is a deep, dark red reminiscent of plums.
The nose reveals notes of cherry liqueur and chocolate, with smoky and dried fruit aromas.
The palate expresses a smooth, velvety texture with perfectly integrated ripe tannins. It features the typical Shiraz fruitiness with notes of black olives, coffee, and red berries.
This 2022 vintage is composed of 96% Syrah and 4% Cabernet Sauvignon, it is one of Penfolds' most attractive wines, a tasty and fruity style.
The advice of 12 bottles: to drink or to keep in the cellar until 2052, the St Henri Shiraz 2021 will go perfectly with a tasty red meat such as a Tataki of a Wagyu Beef.
