Description

2019 Penfolds RWT Bin 798 Shiraz Lunar New Year (Dragon) 750mlThe initials RWT stand for Red Winemaking Trial, the name given to the project internally by Penfolds when developmental work began in 1995. No longer a trial, RWT Shiraz was launched in 2000. Its style is opulent and fleshy, made from fruit primarily selected for its aromatic qualities and plush texture. The result is a wine that helps to redefine Barossa shiraz at the highest quality level. Peak drinking: 2022 2040 Critic tasting note: "This wine
