Blewitt Springs is located in South Australia. It is a semi-rural suburb of Adelaide, within the City of Onkaparinga. We are, more or less, an hour away from Adelaide's city centre. It is here that Penley Estate grows the grapes for this Blewitt Springs Shiraz. A red wine of exceptional power and finesse, it is made from grapes that have been sun-kissed for long periods of time and nourished by chalky, sandy soils. After the grapes are harvested, vinification is carried out using a combination of whole berry fermentation with gentle cap management. After processing, the wine matures in mature oak barrels. Intense ruby red colour with garnet hues, the nose reveals an enveloping aroma of berries, plums, black pepper and liquorice. In the mouth, however, it is full and structured, with velvety tannins and a lingering finish. Good already today, it is undoubtedly a wine that is also suitable for some ageing. Capable of evolving over the years, it will give a complex and soft sip for a long time. Perfect with main courses of red meat, game and mature cheeses.
The history of the Penley Estate winery dates back to 1844, although the real start of the business did not occur until 1945 when Reginald Lester Tolley met Judith Anne Penfold Hyland in his red sports car. The marriage of the two led to the birth of the Penley brand in 1947. Then, in 1988, Reginald and Judith's children decided to create their own wines, starting the Penley Estate winery in Coonawarra, and in 1995 the winery was built. In 2015, brother Kym retired, leaving the decision to sell or revamp the brand to the sisters. The women had no hesitation, and through meeting with Hans, a winemaker and geologist, they initiated extensive vineyard mapping and created a process to produce unique wines. Today, Penley Estate produces classic Coonawarra wines. A story characterised by passion and vision, with a hint of scandal and madness.
