The Penfolds Koonunga Hill Shiraz Cabernet Sauvignon 2023 is a powerful yet elegantly structured red wine from Australia that combines the unmistakable terroir of South Australia. Made from the classic Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon grape varieties, this wine epitomises the legendary Penfolds style - intense, balanced and with impressive depth. The grapes are harvested by hand, carefully selected and then gently crushed to achieve optimum flavour extraction.


Fermentation takes place in small wooden barrels at a controlled temperature, allowing the wine to develop its aromatic precision and depth. The Penfolds Koonunga Hill Shiraz Cabernet Sauvignon then matures for 10 months in oak barrels, which gives it structure, complexity and its characteristic flavour. The result is an expressive Australian red wine that impresses with its balance between ripe fruit, lively freshness and gentle wood. It exemplifies Penfolds' philosophy of creating wines of international calibre with an authentic regional character.

Tasting Note

In the glass, the Penfolds Koonunga Hill Shiraz Cabernet Sauvignon 2023 presents itself in a dark purple-red colour with violet reflections. An intense aroma spectrum of blackberries, blackcurrants, blueberries and mulberries unfolds on the nose, accompanied by fine notes of vanilla, dark chocolate and green pepper, which are the result of ageing in wooden barrels. On the palate, it is powerful, complex and velvety, with ripe tannins and an excellent balance between fruit and flavour. The finish is long-lasting, characterised by dark berry fruit, subtle oak spice and a fine, elegant structure.

The Penfolds Koonunga Hill Shiraz Cabernet Sauvignon 2023 is a versatile accompaniment to strong, aromatic dishes. It is particularly recommended with goose breast with Ingwerer red cabbage and marjoram, ossobuco, fillet of beef with pepper sauce or rack of lamb with a herb crust. It also unfolds its full expressive power with spinach gratin with almonds or mature cheese. The optimum drinking temperature is 15-18 °C and the wine can be drunk until 2032. An Australian red wine classic that impresses with its structure, intensity and elegance in equal measure.
