About this product
Dry, Full Bodied style of ShirazIn the hearts and minds of true Australian Shiraz lovers, Penfolds St Henri holds a special place. Matured for 12 months in 50+ year old seasoned oak vats, St Henri has a track record for cellaring the envy of most. An elegant and pure tannin structure is what sets it apart from the rest of the Penfolds red wine range, but along with those building blocks comes velvet texture, oppulence and generosity. A classic vintage in South Australia, 2006 St Henri will prove to be a favourite well past 2025.

Dry wines have no trace of sweetness at all.

It has an intriguing bouquet that is cut from a different cloth to the previous two vintages. It is more floral and feminine, with dried rose petals, vanilla, liquorice and wild strawberry. The palate is silky smooth and sensual on the entry, indeed, this is a St. Henri that sets out to caress and seduce. There is a cheeky tang of salted liquorice on the finish and grippy dry tannins dominating the finish. This has great potential and what I admire is that it adheres completely and unreservedly to the St. Henri style.
