Penfolds — The Rewards of Patience, Ninth Edition

Drink: Rare. Drink now

Medium-deep crimson. Espresso, flinty, meaty, hint vanilla, crème brûlée aromas with star anise notes. "The fragrance of gently glowing embers, smoke and charcuterie." (NB) Supple and sweet with ample earthy, leather, spice, smoky crème brûlée flavours, fine slinky textures, very good mid-palate volume and well- integrated acidity. A chalky touch leafy/grippy finish with persistent liquorice/hint minty notes. Slightly astringent, suggesting the structure is taking over. 12% alc "A dramatically expressive nose with vivid, highly fragrant floral, smoky notes with touches of dried meat. Lean but juicy and soft; a nice interplay between freshness and zing and then the metallic and s a v o u ry u n d e r c u r r en t s follow. It's calm, but still giving a lot of flavour a n d p e rs is t e n c e ."
