The Penfolds St Henri Shiraz 2014 vintage is lifted, racy. Rhône-ish at first, South Australian upon sitting. Bountiful aromatics ascend – initially redcurrant, cranberry, Christmas cake mix, and then the liberation of citrus (lime peel), fennel and olive. Middle Eastern spices also present – sweet, not savoury (incl. cinnamon, nutmeg). And, not unexpected, something not present – oak! PALATE Svelte. Nevertheless, propels assertive tannins Above-average winter and early spring rainfall offered the vines in South Australia healthy soil moisture profiles for the growing season. Late spring and summer were dry and warm with significant heat records being set. Warm weather prevailed during summer and throughout veraison, allowing grapes to develop evenly and with good intensity. The warm conditions came to an abrupt halt in mid-February with significant rainfall that allowed for a long and slow ripening of the fruit in very good conditions. This ensured balanced flavour development, fruit exhibiting a brightness endowed with crisp acid retention and impressive fruit quality. The Finer Details Style – Red Wine Varietal – Shiraz 96%, Cabernet Sauvignon 4% Country – Australia Region – Barossa Valley, South Australia Vintage – 214 Bottle Size 0- 750ml ABV – 14.5%
