Leading the way, sun-dried fig, succulent fresh blueberries, and delicate violets. This wine exudes a lovely, sweet fruit essence, elevating the aromatics with a richness that is undeniably Penfolds. Subtle undertones of mocha\u003cbr\u003eblend with gâteau de fruit à pain, while paprika and turmeric spice add depth. Oak maturation imparts further complexity, introducing the refined essence of blond tabac, a fragrant blend of bergamot, neroli, lavender, tobacco, oakmoss, and vanilla. A hint of struck flint provides a stony-mineral counterpoint to the sweet\/spice richness, resulting in a diverse bouquet.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePALATE:\u003cbr\u003eA lavish display of sweet and sour Amarena cherries emerges, akin to a decadent black cherry tart with crème fraîche. This lush fruit core is balanced by a refreshing herbaceous nuance, with bay leaf and chocolate mint offering a counterpoint to the buoyant fruit. The toasty oak is masterfully integrated, folded into the core rather than imposed, contributing to the creamy texture that endures with each sip. The structure of the wine is framed by fine, pebbly tannins, which lend a tactile sensation akin to the smoothness of wet stone. There is a finely sculpted muscularity, a hallmark of a wine with a strong backbone. This wine, while already approachable, possesses an inherent tension that suggests it will continue to unfold and reveal its full splendour with patience and time in the cellar. It commands attention, balancing power and poise with a deft touch.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penfolds","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44411528478790,"sku":"PTWPK0045","price":110.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0065\/7840\/5446\/files\/PENVR21FWT585CabSauvMerFrance750FBCork_3b07bffc-a98c-48be-88af-64cc56f35be3.jpg?v=1767684515","url":"https:\/\/thecellar.sg\/products\/fwt-585-cabernet-sauvignon-merlot-petit-verdot","provider":"The Cellar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
