Wine Tasting- Penfolds Koonunga Hill Shiraz Cabernet



Name: Penfolds Koonunga Hill Shiraz Cabernet
Varietals: Cabernet and Shiraz blend
Region: South Australia
Country: Australia
Year: 2009
Price: $10.99


Wine Maker Review: "Sweet dark plum fruits, red berries and white fruit cake aromatics. There is a mocha/coffee and vanilla lift stemming from the balanced well integrated use of seasoned oak."


My Review: The initial taste of this wine is just alcohol, but it diminishes quickly beneath a nicely muted raspberry taste. Then you get a dry mouth feel followed by dull spice, tapering into a vanilla-y creamy finish. Very creamy finish. This was nice, not my favorite but it grew on me the more I drank it.
