Heiner Lobenberg über:
RWT Shiraz Barossa Valley 2016

97+
/100

Lobenberg: Die Nase dieses fast lilafarbenen, undurchsichtigen Stoffs ist deutlich exotischer als die des Qualität-Bruders 'Magil Estate“. Französische Eiche umspielt mit feiner Vanille und Zedernholzcharakter die deutlich von Orangenschalen geprägte Schwarzkirschen-Brombeere-Mischung. Dazu provencalische Kräuter. Im Hochrollen die bei allen großen Penfolds-Weinen obligatorische Blaubeere in feiner Schokolade. Frische Pflaume und schwarzer Pfeffer dazu. Alles in höchster Intensität aber mit fast wuchtiger Samt-Fülle. 97+/100

Jeb Dunnuck über: RWT Shiraz Barossa Valley

-- Jeb Dunnuck: The 2016 Shiraz RWT is a brilliant, brilliant wine, and I suspect the finest version of this cuvee ever produced. Thrilling notes of black raspberries, crème de cassis, toasted spice, mint, and espresso all emerge from this deep, rich, powerful Shiraz. With massive concentration, it still glides across the palate with no sensation of heaviness or rusticity, building, perfectly ripe tannins, and incredible opulence and intensity. It shows more grilled meat notes with time in the glass and is a monumental Barossa Shiraz that flirts with perfection. 99/100

Parker über: RWT Shiraz Barossa Valley

-- Parker: The 2016 RWT Shiraz is Penfolds's embodiment of Barossa Valley Shiraz. Aged in French oak (72% new), it offers hints of vanilla and cedar, but more than anything, it showcases the region's bold berry and plum fruit. Full-bodied and rich, verging on decadent, yet firmly structured and long on the finish, it's a powerful yet elegant wine that is capable of being consumed young or aging up to two decades. Having embarked on a career in the wine business right around the time the first RWT was released, it's a treat to see how the latest version is showing. It's a relative bargain among the Penfolds upper echelon. 97/100

International Wine Report über: RWT Shiraz Barossa Valley

-- International Wine Report: The 2016 'RWT' is an absolutely sensational showing from Penfolds in this vintage. Aged in French oak puncheons for 12 months prior to bottling, this begins with oaky and chocolate nuances which provide a beautiful complement to the deep dark and blue fruit aromatics. The texture of this full-bodied red is sinfully good, as it glides beautifully across the palate leaving behind profound flavors of black tea, blueberry compote, blackberry cobbler, cigar ash and boysenberry cordial which utterly delight the senses. While this is nothing short of delicious now, it is ultimately an age-worthy wine that will demand some time in bottle before it fully hits its stride. 96/100

Decanter über: RWT Shiraz Barossa Valley

-- Decanter: Developed in 1995 from a red winemaking trial, hence RWT, this is the quintessence of Barossa Shiraz, albeit in 72% new French rather than American oak, which brings a finesse of mouthcoating texture to the wine. It has depth of colour, aromas of liquorice, spice and mocha, and concentrated black fruits on the rich, sumptuously opulent palate. It's all underpinned by French oak polish along with a freshness and fine-boned structure that should see this sleek beauty last two decades if kept in good condition. If this were a Bordeaux it would be a second growth, and apart from Grange this is the star of the show this year. It should be great with a roast rib of beef. 96/100

Falstaff über: RWT Shiraz Barossa Valley

-- Falstaff: Tiefdunkles Rubingranat, opaker Kern, violette Reflexe, zarte Randaufhellung. Mit feiner Kräuterwürze unterlegtes feines schwarzes Beerenkonfit, zart ätherisch, reife Pflaumen, ein Hauch von Oliven und Kräuter, schokoladiger Touch. Engmaschig und komplex, straffe Tannine, die lange tragen werden, dunkler Nougat, mineralisch, salzig, überzeugende Länge, sicheres Potenzial, ein würziger Speisenbegleiter. 96/100
