About Penfolds Koonunga Hill Shiraz-Cabernet

Wine has a long history of being used as an early form of medicine to cure a wide range of ailments, so much so that in 1844 when Dr. Chistopker Penfold emigrated from the UK to Australia with his family and settled on the Magill Estate, the perfect place for a vineyard, he quickly planted French vine cuttings with the aim of making a wine to treat anaemia. This is how he and his wife Mary developed a type of sherry-style fortified wine for their patients. But it was so well received that, before long, they had to expand the winery and were encouraged to produce other types of wine. Penfolds’ excellence rests on their blends made from different varieties and regions, which has been the case right from the very beginning. All of their work is faithful to an accessible and fresh style that has led them to become one of the most representative wineries in South Australia.

Among the wide range of wines they have been making in their 170-year history, Penfolds Koonunga Hill Shiraz-Cabernet is recognised as one of Australia’s favourite premium red wines. Named after one of their great vineyards in the Barossa Valley, this wine is made from large Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah vines spread throughout South Australia. These vines are cultivated using environmentally friendly agriculture and when the grapes reach the winery, the wine is vinified in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature and aged for 10 months in seasoned oak barrels. The result of this work is a wine full of fruity flavour with a firm and well-balanced structure. An introduction to a collection of wines that, both for its accessibility and its good bottle aging potential, wins people over wherever it goes.

 

2019

Penfolds Koonunga Hill Shiraz-Cabernet 2019 is a richly concentrated red wine suffused with scents of crimson licorice, undertones of fennel, and echoes of both red and black fruits. On the palate, it is aromatic, silky, and refined. This fruit-forward wine boasts delicate, silky tannins and an earthy finish.
2018

Penfolds Koonunga Hill Shiraz-Cabernet 2018 is a concentrated red wine with aromas of red fruits, hints of aromatic plants and touches of red liquorice. On the palate it is meaty, deep and elegant. A wine with fine, elegant tannins, a good fine-grained texture and a long, lingering finish.
