2019 | Penfolds RWT - Bin 798 Shiraz | Barossa Valley Château Cos Labory the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Champoux

the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Champoux Vineyard opens with a bouquet of rose

chocolate covered cherries and dark plum are balanced by a powerful explosion of flavor on the palate

The young vines had an 80% loss from the frost

White flowers on the nose

with a bold menthol note followed quickly by boysenberry and blackberry compote flavors wrapped in black licorice

2019 | Penfolds RWT - Bin 798 Shiraz | Barossa Valley Château Cos Labory the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon ChampouxA strident RWT with a regional signature of tar and coal smoke to the ripe plums and blackberries. Such intense, ripe dark plum and blackberry drive on powerful, deep set tannins that run long through the finish. Contained power. 96 Pts James Suckling
