Dusty dark fruit with hint of mocha. Not very well balanced - tannins too grippy.

Value! Great introduction to proper Aussie Shiraz. A ballet of black pepper and smoked fruit. #stafftasting #penfolds @DLynn Proctor

Darkdark color; typical nose with fruity rich dark notes and spices; rich powerful chestburning taste with liquorice, dark fruits and oak. Tasty but not very interesting.

Good for what it's supposed to be, which is full, smooth, and a tad spicy and jammy.

Juicy, dry, not too robust of a flavor, though. Very aromatic

Nice. Not a superstar. Might decant for hours to see if that gets it to open up more.
