Cellar for 10 years or more. Decant for an hour before serving.

This is a full-bodied, 100% Cabernet Sauvignon wine, made with grapes from Australia’s Coonawarra region. It opens up with a rich bouquet of black hedgerow berries and dark, ripe fruits, with undertones of green herbs, oak, wet stone, and purple flowers. It is an extremely highly rated wine at this price point, and a must-have for anyone who enjoys Cabernet.

The Penley estate is part of the same family tree as the famous Penfolds wine company. In 1988, the winery was founded by the children of Reginald Lester Tolley and Judith Anne Penfold Hyland, both heirs to prestigious family wineries in the south of Australia. These days, it is spearheaded by Kate Goodman, one of Australia’s most exciting contemporary winemakers.

The Phoenix Cabernet Sauvignon is a wild, full-blooded affair, with notes of blackberry, cherry, fresh eucalyptus, black pepper and iron. Clear hints of spice come to the forefront as the wine opens up. Silky tannins dry the palate with each sip, and clean acidity elevates the entire experience. It was matured for 12 months before release, in a combination of 70% French oak and 30% stainless steel. This is a great wine for pairing with barbecued meats, roasted vegetables, or aged cheese.
