2005 Penfolds Shiraz St. Henri

Community Tasting Note

Likes this wine:

89 Points

Sunday, May 17, 2015 - Deep red color, opaque. Strong black fruit nose. The taste was a little disappointing - I was expecting a smoother richer taste as it is 10 years old. The flavor is a little flat and there is a lack of obvious fruit - I think this wine is past its best - contrary to the majority of posts. The taste is pleasant, but mild and below the price point expectation. It may be that before I got it it was stored poorly somewhere in the distribution chain - I bought it in 2012 - already 7 years old. I have had excellent St Henri's in the past.
