The 1987 Penfolds St Henri Shiraz represents a mature and elegant expression of Penfolds celebrated Shiraz style. Unlike many Australian reds of its era, St Henri is crafted without reliance on new oak, instead matured in large seasoned vats to preserve the pure character of fruit and savoury complexity.

After nearly four decades of cellaring, this wine reveals an evolved bouquet of dried blackberry, plum, leather, and earthy spice, supported by subtle notes of cedar, tobacco, and dark chocolate. The palate is soft and layered, with silky tannins, savoury depth, and a graceful balance between fruit sweetness and tertiary complexity. A rare vintage offering both charm and historical value for collectors.

Serving & Cellaring:

Best enjoyed now alongside roast meats, game dishes, or aged cheeses. Fully mature and drinking beautifully, it should be opened with care.
