Penny’s Hill The Footprint Shiraz 2020

A stunning expression of the variety, it’s enticing on the nose with dark fruit intensity, warm spice, cedary oak and dark chocolate characters. The powerfully concentrated palate displays excellent depth and opulence, wonderfully supported by velvety texture and beautifully melded tannins. Gratifying and hugely appealing. At its best: 2024 to 2038. Score – 96. (Sam Kim, wineorbit.co.nz, Sept. 2022)
