RWT stands for Red Winemaking Trial, the name given to the project internally when developmental work began on a campaign to redefine Barossa Shiraz at the highest level. Penfolds have sourced parcels of the most transcendent fruit from dedicated Barossa growers, chosen on the basis of aromatic qualities and fine texture rather than intensity or power. Since inaugural vintage, collectors have recognised the sheer class of RWT, already the wine has a strong secondary market following, illustrating its collectability and cellaring potential.
RWT breaks with the established Penfold tradition of assembling fruit from across the greater coterie of South Australia's viticultural precincts, to deliver a pure Barossa Shiraz that's matured exclusively in a high proportion of new French oak. Parcels which are earmarked for inclusion must express a developed level of ripeness, balanced tannins and clear varietal characters, to realize a style of RWT that's opulent and fleshy, contrasting with Grange, which is more muscular and assertive. The finished wine is fashioned to feature gentle Barossa warmth and eloquent varietal brightness. RWT is matured fifteen months in a selection of new and one year old French oak hogsheads. Alcohol 14.5%
TASTING NOTES
Deep dark red. Ascending waves of blueberry and boysenberry, damson plum over cedar and ginger oak. Full bodied, textural generosity and richness, an emulsion of sarsparilla, chinotto and mascarpone replete with ripe, grande tannins and acidity conspiring to maintain balance and dimension. Masses of fruits, berries, chocolate, and mocha. Elegance with stature and charm.
 Penfolds
Penfolds was founded by a young English doctor who migrated to one of his country's most distant colonies a century and a half ago
Dr Christopher Rawson Penfold was born in 1811, the youngest of 11 children. He studied medicine at St Bartholomew's Hospital, London, graduating in 1838. Like many doctors before and since, Dr Penfold had a firm belief in the medicinal value of wine. Before he left Britain he had obtained vine cuttings from the south of France and these were planted around the site of the modest stone cottage he built with his wife, Mary, at Magill on the outskirts of Adelaide in 1845. The couple called this house The Grange, after Mary's home in England. Penfolds»
