Its traditional style relies on maturation in large, seasoned oak rather than prominent new-oak influence, producing a powerful, long-lived expression that has become a favourite among Penfolds collectors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eVintage\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter an extraordinarily wet spring and early summer, a long, fine autumn enabled full ripeness to be achieved. Penfolds noted that the 1993 release was highly likely to develop similarly to the top-quality 1991, 1986 and 1983 vintages.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eVineyard\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 1993 St. Henri draws on South Australian vineyard sources including the Barossa Valley, Coonawarra, Eden Valley and McLaren Vale.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWinemaking\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe wine was matured for 12 months in large old oak casks aged approximately 30–40 years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eProducer Tasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“Bright red-purple in colour. The wine is overtly fruit-driven with complex, sweet, stewed plum\/berried fruit and hints of pepper and liquorice. Underlying oak maturation characters add depth and complexity. This highly individual, full bodied red has concentrated, powerful and mouth filling berry flavours and great palate length. Reflecting its origins the wine features ripe plum and mulberry Shiraz flavours derived from the Barossa Valley and McLaren Vale.” — Penfolds\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCritic Reviews\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e92\/100 — Jeremy Oliver\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eTasted January 2003\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e91\/100 — The Wine Front\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e90\/100 — CellarTracker\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVintage:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1993\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrape Variety:\u003c\/strong\u003e Shiraz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Barossa Valley, Coonawarra, Eden Valley \u0026amp; McLaren Vale, South Australia, Australia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAlcohol:\u003c\/strong\u003e 13.5%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSweetness:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaturation:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12 months in large old oak casks (30–40 years old)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWinemaker:\u003c\/strong\u003e Peter Gago\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOwnership:\u003c\/strong\u003e Treasury Wine Estates\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrinking Window:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1998–2013\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Langtons","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52420441833774,"sku":"7254828260","price":259.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0686\/6596\/6894\/files\/658_1993_Penfolds_St_Henri_Shiraz_750ml_Minor_Label_Stains_0a262b68-2bd8-4f48-8dae-15040016c5da.jpg?v=1786435740","url":"https:\/\/www.jcfinewines.au\/products\/1993-penfolds-st-henri-shiraz-750ml-1","provider":"JC FINE WINES","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
