Penfolds RWT Shiraz 2004
Penfolds RWT is basically a 'baby Grange.' So for Aussie wine fanatics, this is an incredible opportunity to taste greatness at less than a third of the price of Grange. Penfolds was established in 1844...
Wine Advocate
The 2004 Shiraz “RWT” was barrel-fermented and aged for 14 months in 69% new French oak. Opaque purple-colored, it delivers an expressive nose of smoke, leather, grilled bacon, game, blueberry, and licorice. Full-bodied, it is dense, ripe, and layered as well as opulent. More forward than the Magill Estate, this hedonistic Shiraz can be enjoyed now but will continue to evolve for another 8-10 years.
Score: 95.

Wine Enthusiast
Practically roars from the glass with vanilla and spice, yet despite aging in mainly new French oak, the fruit flows forth in waves, adding cherries and blackberries to the mix. Creamy, lush and mouthfilling, this is a top-notch effort that may be drunk now and over the next 15 or more years.
Score: 93.

Wine Spectator
Broad and generous. A lively mouthful of black tea-accented cherry and herb notes, lingering against crisp tannins on the finish. The flavors have a purity and focus that comes through all the accents. Best from 2009 through 2015.
Score: 92.
