"A fine McLaren Vale estate, Penny's Hill has made a tight but promising, deep, full-bodied 1998 Shiraz. It boasts a saturated ruby/purple color, and elegant, ripe notes of blackberries, chocolate, pepper, and vanillin. Initially restrained, it unfolds and becomes increasingly expansive as the wine sits in the glass."

Renowned for powerful, richly fruited Shiraz, most famously from the Barossa Valley, alongside age-worthy Cabernet and cool-climate whites. A warm climate and old, ungrafted vines produce wines of generosity and depth.
Syrah (Shiraz) produces dark, powerful reds with black fruit, pepper and smoked-meat notes. It yields elegant, perfumed wines in the northern Rhone and bold, rich styles in Australia.
