Colour
Lustrous, deep purple with a rich crimson hue.
Bouquet
Expressive aromas of fresh blueberry, mulberry, blackberry and raspberry are layered with floral tones, berry pastry, cola, salty liquorice and savoury green olive. Further complexity comes from candied orange, panettone and bitter dark chocolate.
Flavour
Powerful, opulent and full-bodied, with concentrated flavours of blackcurrant, ripe plum, mulberry and dark berries. Notes of praline, hazelnut, crème brûlée, fresh coffee, malted chocolate and bitter chocolate add richness and depth. Fine, mouth-filling tannins and bright acidity provide structure, balance and a long, persistent finish.

Description

Grape: Shiraz

The Penfolds RWT Bin 798 Shiraz 2021 is one of Penfolds’ most distinguished expressions of Barossa Valley Shiraz. Originally known as the “Red Winemaking Trial”, RWT was created to showcase the aromatic qualities, plush texture and fine tannins of Barossa Shiraz, offering a more refined and elegantly expressive style compared with the more muscular character of Grange.

The 2021 vintage displays impressive concentration, precision and balance. Its deep purple colour leads to lifted aromas of blueberry, mulberry, raspberry, red currant, floral notes, cola, liquorice and savoury green olive. On the palate, generous dark fruit is complemented by crème brûlée, praline, hazelnut, coffee, bitter chocolate and finely polished tannins.

Matured for 14 months in French oak hogsheads 80% new and 20% one-year-old the wine combines richness and power with freshness and elegance. Presented in a refined gift box, it is an excellent choice for collectors, important celebrations and premium corporate gifting.
