An Aussie wine worth a try

Advantages: cheap, a good young wine, flavour
Disadvantages: none

...this: Name of Wine: Penfolds Koonunga Hill Brand: Penfolds, Australia. Location: It is located at South Australia, near Adelaide, slightly north east of Adelaide, and specifically, in Barrosa Valley. Price: A bottle will cost you about 4.50 to 5.50GBP. A bulk quantity would be cheaper. I find the price fairly reasonable compared to many other Aussie wines. I also find it a much better deal compared to the Penfolds Ruby Cabernet (which I have done ...
...on the body, stating ‘ Penfolds Koonunga Hill Shiraz Cabernet, and the vintage year’ There are a few more lines of sentences in small fonts and I can’t really remember what is it. Type: Red Wine (I’m sorry xara, it isn’t white) Contents: the wine has a 14% Alc.Vol and a 750ml capacity. Other vintages might have a 13.5% Alc.Vol. The wine is mostly made up of cabernet sauvignon, and the syrah grape. The cabernet gives the wine the tannins and most ...

Review of Penfolds Koonunga Hill Shiraz Cabernet

Full bodied Aussie youngster.

Advantages: Full complex flavours
Disadvantages: Perhaps a little young,but well worth laying some down.

Penfolds wines are easily recognisable: plain white labels, the name Penfolds in red italics, and the rest of the script in black. Clear and unpretentious; stylish in a conservative sort of way. This wine usually costs about £6.99 in the supermarkets; I got this at a 20% discount in Tesco’s Aussie wine promotion. It seems to be on offer quite regularly. This is a price range where one is entitled to expect something good, although not necessarily ...
...type wines to alleviate this. Penfolds gradually grew and were a major producer by the 1920s, making mostly fortified wines and brandy. At the end of WW2 only 3% of Penfolds output was table wine, and the company’s growth into what it has become today stared with experimental plantings in the 1950s and continued through the 60s. This wine was first made in 1976. This wine weighs in at 13.5% alcohol, which makes it a pretty hefty bruiser. I feel ...

Review of Penfolds Koonunga Hill Shiraz Cabernet

Bordeaux wine in Australia

Advantages: Taste, price
Disadvantages: None

Koonunga Hill Shiraz Cabernet from Penfold's is one of my favourite red wine. What do I like about it is its price, at £5 a bottle, it is in the medium segment of the market but what you get for £5 is of exceptional quality. I am French, and have spent 10 years of my life nearby Bordeaux. One could even say that prior to moving to England, I did not believe that any country bar France was able of producing good wine... Maybe apart from Spain and ...
...and wine in the same sentence I would have laugh at your face **remember I am French and therefore I am rude** I was lucky enough one day to spend 2 month working for a canadian wine and spirit advertising agency which had within their portfolio Penfold's an Australian wine grower. Working there had its highs and lows, though you were encourage to taste the product you worked form Originally, I took this as another low in the job, taste some horrible ...

Review of Penfolds Koonunga Hill Shiraz Cabernet

Mmmm You must drink this!

Advantages: Tasty, goes with anything!
Disadvantages: Makes you dizzy if you drink too much!

Okay, Australia has got an advantage when it comes to nice wines and it's hard to make a decision when faced with all those lovely looking bottles in the wine shop but you really must try this one. I'm not much of a drinker (though my partner would have you believe otherwise!!) but I honestly could drink this with ANYTHING. It's such a lovely lazy drink which tastes far superior to any other general Aussie wine - in my opinion this is of course! ...
