MY Baby Box Collection

Penfolds is able to source quality fruit from a diverse range of vineyard sites, including some of the best and oldest vineyards in South Australia, a tremendous resource which leads to a remarkable consistency of style. An assemblage of selected parcels of fruit from premium vineyards, Thomas Hyland combines the highly succesful Penfolds multi-district blending skills with a focus on rich and flavoursome contemporary styling. Cabernet grapes, with significant proportions from Langhorne Creek and McLaren Vale, fully ripe and varietally expressive are selected on the basis of quality and fruit character. Matured in a combination of new and prior use French and American oak. Approx 13.5%

Colour is a deep red with purple hues. The nose shows sweet ripe berries with hints of nutmeg and background oak. The wine captures plum, mocha coffee and vanillin flavours. A varietal fruit lift of sweet blackcurrant, cassis and blueberry fruit, with hints of spice, boxwood and cigar. A firm palate, rich and generous with alluring varietal characters, blackcurrent and chocolatey fruit, yet one that shows the balanced Penfolds oak maturation influence. The subtle underlying French and American oak characters, delicious cabernet flavours, and ripe chunky tannins, present a wine which finishes with an excellent burst of flavour.
