Penfolds Koonunga Hill Cabernet Merlot, South Eastern Australia

This wine breaks like a wave of unbridled red and black fruit on the nose and palate. But don’t let the initial exuberance fool you. Stay with it awhile and see it evolve toward intriguing complexity: earthy, leathery notes peel away to reveal layers of bittersweet chocolate, espresso, tobacco, and flowers. The suede mouthfeel ends with a long, leathery finish. Full-bodied with 13.5% alc.

Penfolds Koonunga Hill Shiraz Cabernet, South Australia

Dense purple wine with a peppered and smoked berry nose that seems to explode in the mouth with blackberry purée, blackcurrant, plum, rawhide, bonfire, and peppercorn. Marble-smooth and rich with an appealing tannic grip on the finish. A real pleasure to drink. Full-bodied with 13.5% alc.
