Penfolds, Magill Estate Shiraz Vintage:2016 Given how precocious it seems

Given how precocious it seems just nowit certainly won't make your mouth turn immediately to cotton and your tongue seize upthe fruit is so good that some will dare to drink it now

youthfully austere and impeccably well-balanced finish

but it closes down to reveal a tart

but as it settles into the glass there are plenty of Margaux floral aromatics and soft berry fruits

concentrated and powerful flavors possess a sleek mouth feel yet there is no lack of punch or muscle on the well-balanced and gorgeously persistent finish

Penfolds, Magill Estate Shiraz Vintage:2016 Given how precocious it seemsThe 2016 Shiraz Magill Estate aged in 100% new oak (70% French and 30% American), which has left its cedary, vanilla mark on the wine, but in a balanced, harmonious way. It's a full bodied wine, with big berry fruit and lavish oak, yet those components are wonderfully judged, coming together in a fine, elegant wine that showcases the brand's home estate in the Adelaide suburbs. With only 15 cases for the United States, it will be tough to track down.
