dense and supremely concentrated

this is built for the long-term and unless you’re going to drink this when it’s very young it would be better to plan on allowing this to rest at least 10 years in the cellar

and although I still bought a financially irresponsible amount of wine

Penfolds, Magill Estate Shiraz Vintage:2010 dense and supremely concentratedThe 2016 Shiraz Magill Estate aged in 100% new oak (70% French and 30% American), which has left its cedary, vanilla mark on the wine, but in a balanced, harmonious way. It's a full bodied wine, with big berry fruit and lavish oak, yet those components are wonderfully judged, coming together in a fine, elegant wine that showcases the brand's home estate in the Adelaide suburbs. With only 15 cases for the United States, it will be tough to track down.
